Google is now threatening America's schools, saying they will turn off their core search functions if schools choose to entirely block AI.

Google Will Turn Off Search for Schools That Reject A.I. (Gift Article)

Google is making it easier to restrict its A.I. tools for students. But schools that block A.I. entirely will lose student access to Google’s search engine.

“The company’s new strategy underscores Google’s powerful role in American education. If school leaders want continued student access to search within the company’s ecosystem, they will be forced to embrace Google’s A.I.”

There is still an air of uncomprehending confusion in tech (and frankly, even in some climate / energy spaces) around why people do not like AI

www.choice.com.au/data-protect...

Infographic summarizing Australian views on AI: fewer than 1 in 10 (9%) say AI improves products/services; 51% say AI chatbots worsen customer service; 49% say AI increases scams; 70% distrust businesses using AI freely; 83% want government laws to mitigate AI risks.
