Have you heard that Google will make their search engine unavailable to schools that has banned AI?

Apparently Google is going to shut down the search engine for schools who don’t use AI. Apparently forcing their AI onto people is more important to them than having more people use their search engine.

I approve of those schools that attempt to prevent the total "stupidification" of their pupils and children.

If enough schools oppose the use of AI in class and prohibit the use of smartphones and ban anything closely ressembling AI in their classes, then this spamming company will have to think twice.

Kids (and adults) become increasingly stupid and are unable to make a decision for themselves. I am waiting for the day when doctors, prior to performing a surgical intervention, will ask AI how to proceed because they have cheated on their exams and have no idea what to do by themselves.

If I were the school I wouldn't use them now already out of principle. Basically trying to blackmail. But there are alternatives.

Their loss. Other search engines will gladly offer their AI-free services.
