Google will disable Search for K‑12 accounts that fully block AI

Google being able to turn of learning if you don’t use an AI they ADMIT is destroying their business model Actually froze my spine , it doesn’t shock me But if we don’t have a PEOPLE centered long term educational platform discussion by next year We are COOKED

oh my god bruh they are legit just saying "oh you hate ai? no more google for you!"

K-12 schools restricting AI will lose student access to Google Search next year under an all-or-nothing policy affecting millions of classrooms.

Am I saying it's great? No. But "google threatens to cut off access to search unless schools accept ai" is a bit of a misnomer

Duck Duck Go is an option, educators. A useful search engine that includes the ability to disable generative AI functionality without impeding searches.

Google: Forces AI on everyone, even school children. DuckDuckGo: Lets people choose if they want AI in search results.

Dear every school: Google search engine is hot garbage these days anyway. Switch to @duckduckgo.com, & even better noai.duckduckgo.com, & not only will Google not be able to threaten you like this, but your students & staff will actually get relevant results when they search. It's a win win!😎👍

-Google extorting schools that ban AI -Epic removing C++ and Blueprints for AI from Unreal Engine -Arc Raiders using AI voices because real actors would "go crazy" reading stuff God, I'm so glad I got out of bed for this shit.

Oh no, not the famously useful Google search tools that still work

don't need google search anyway. can use startpage.com and ecosia.org . startpage is a minimalistic google search copy and ecosia's AI can be turned off.

"Yeah, Google search just seems ....not useful, I wonder what's going on with them...."

Google Search has long been crap-ified to serve their other businesses. Nothing of value lost here.

This is some real "take my ball and go home" bullshit that Google will say is not about taking the ball or going home.

"Lina Khan, a former chair of the Federal Trade Commission, said in a statement that Google was using its “search monopoly to coerce schools” into adopting its A.I. She added that multiple courts had found the tech giant liable for violating antitrust laws." Seems like she knows her business.

Truly nasty work by Google. We are beyond cooked because of this trash interest in AI by tech bros. The tech industry should never have been allowed in K12 schools pushing their shit on kids. Tech bros are a scourge to society.
