But they have to. Otherwise funding goes away.

Yes. But by then the people overstating now will have made their money and moved on.
I agree with you, but honestly companies and investors are so shallow it isn't hard to see what is going on.

Yep, and those people will likely be sending THEIR kids to elite private schools with 5:1 student-teacher ratios and 20-40K/year tuition for elementary and high school. These schools will DEFINITELY NOT use "AI" for grading.
- nickserv 8y agoIt's weird that what is luxury today was once the norm: organic produce, a stay at home parent, natural (as opposed to synthetic) clothing, etc. I won't be surprised if having human teachers / caregivers will be reserved for the upper classes.
- zeth___ 8y agoIf you think you can get a 5:1 student ratio on 40k a year I have a bridge you can buy. For a 10:1 you'd be looking at 100k.
