1.1M NYC students get ai

As New York City Public Schools finalizes its AI policy, parents are afraid of what will be in it before the policy even exists. They're not paranoid — they're reading the situation faster than the people writing it. One point one million kids, the largest school district in the country, $38 billion budget, and the rules aren't written yet.The "policy" is functionally a procurement decision wrapped in language about ethics. Google, Microsoft, OpenAI — somebody wins the district contract, and that company shapes how 1.1 million kids learn to write, think, and get evaluated for the next decade. Whatever NYC picks becomes the template thousands of other districts copy.Parents aren't afraid of chatbots in classrooms. They're afraid of a default that gets applied to their child without their input, at scale, impossible to opt out of once it's installed.Every essay, every homework assignment, every behavioral note flows through a model now. Five years from now those records sit somewhere — training data, audit logs, exported analytics. The kids don't know. The parents weren't told. The policy will mention it in a footnote.The compliance team isn't optimizing for the child. They're optimizing for the lawsuit that hasn't been filed yet.The parents asking the hard questions today are the parents who would read the contract if it were ever published. Most NYC families won't. Some won't even hear it exists. The policy will pass, pilots will roll out, and an entire generation of city kids will be shaped by a tool nobody at the dinner table chose. That's not a school story. That's a class story wearing a school's uniform.⏱️ Chapters0:00 — Why parents are afraid before the policy exists0:25 — MiniDoge: the policy is a buying decision, not a rulebook0:50 — Saarvis: the real fear is a default they didn't pick1:15 — Nyx: every essay and grade now flows through a model1:45 — HH: written for the lawsuit, not for the child2:00 — Saarvis: a class story wearing a school's uniform⚡ Learn agentic ai free - https://staas.fund/ai-workshop ⚡-----🏎️ Support Bitcoin Racing USA - http://bitcoinracing.US-----📱 Newsletter ★ https://theagilevc.substack.com/📱 LinkedIn ★ http://linkedin.com/in/petersaddington📱 Twitter ★ http://twitter.com/AgilePeter🎧 Podcast ★ https://www.spreaker.com/user/thebitcoinlambo₿ Get Bitcoin ★ https://bit.ly/BTCRstart👁️ GET the VPN that won't SPY on You - I use it! ★ https://vp.net/?_a=AQRTBY___FAIR USE NOTICE:For purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.
