    Paying kids for engaging academically is the least fucked up thing about this. Paying kids for going to class—not even getting good grades, just going to class and studying—is something that works in the real world, and the schools being responsible for this rather than the parents ensures everyone has a much closer to equal incentive for studying.

    This is the child version of grants for school. I’m sorry but you’re not going to be able to convince me that is the bad part of the school without teachers that has kids spend 2 hours “learning” from AI each day before being shuffled off to BS business success workshops.

      Where are you getting the data that paying kids to go to school is effective?

          That sounds like it incentivises spreading disease

            The two are not mutually exclusive. Nothing in this world is black and white, everything is shades of grey.

    This is sounds like a job at best, indentured servitude at worst.

    Why go through the trouble of worrying what human teachers opposing your views will do to broaden the education of students when you can just program your own AI teachers to narrow and misteach your student’s education!
