Ask HN: Use AI to pay students based on how well-behaved they are in class?
An AI could constantly monitor student behavior in class and determine how much each student should be paid.
Wouldn't that solve the problem of bad behavior among K-12 students nowadays?
- toomuchtodo 2y agoYikes. This is not good vs supporting parents and reducing student ratios. If you want better kids in public school, support parents who have or want kids, and help people who don’t want kids not have them. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40053774 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40053774
- Wheatman 2y agoThay sounds heavily dystopian, you would need to be monitering children throughout their entire school year to get any sort of accurate data, not to mention needing to decide what "good behaviour" is specifically. Enforcing discipline in a class is fine if done well, (my own school used to be somewhat strict) but when students expect to be paid to begood, then they end up growing with that expectation, and would get mad/feel betrayed whenever they dont get immediately rewarded for it in real life. This is how you get "nice guys".
- Suppafly 2y agoNo that's stupid.
- ungreased0675 2y agoNo, this is a bad idea.
