> There will however be a gigantic gulf between kids who use AI to learn vs those who use AI to aid learning

yeah, but not the way you are thinking

you think the rich are going to abolish a traditional education for their kids and dump them in front of a prompt text box for 8 years

that'll just be for the poor and (formerly) middle-class kids

This is absolutely not an objective review. The person who wrote this is a very particular type of person who Alpha School appeals strongly towards. I'm not saying anything in particular is wrong with the review, but calling it unbiased is incorrect.

Calling the Alpha school "AI" or even "AI to aid learning" is a massive stretch. I've read that article and nothing in there says AI to me. Data collection and on-demand computer-based instruction, sure.

I don't disagree with your premise, but I don't think that article backs it up at all.

What is the distinction between using "AI to learn" and using "AI to aid learning?"
