   Part of the problem is that there is no such thing as a "checked AI".  The   
   models and the results of those models are such that humans can no longer check   
   an AI learning.   
      
   Then another part is that the person doing the "checking" is biased.   
       
    IJ> AI (Checked AI) would teach 5+5=10 and here's the solution.   
      
   Unless the AI was teaching New Math which teaches that 2*3 is not 3*2.   
      
    IJ> What we have with the idiots that the current school system in the US   
    IJ> ...   
      
   No doubt.  But those idiots control the school systems and have infiltrated   
   deep.  Any changes will be filtered through their Reality Distortion Field and   
   be just as woke as now.

   But AI won't fix this.  It will simply shift it someplace else.   
      
    IJ> The schools academic standing was through the roof and the kids weren't   
    IJ> trying to be indoctrinated   
      
   That's what usually happens when schools focus on education instead of   
   indoctrination.  But that is a human issue, not an AI issue.   
      
    IJ> @RonL, there has to be a move away from where we are.  Parent   
    IJ> involvement and there has to be an alternative.   
      
   We have to take our schools back.   
      
   Many moons ago here in Michigan, schools were mostly funded through millages.    
   So every few years, the schools had to kow tow to the parents to get them to   
   vote for more funding.   
      
   I remember in my area, the schools basically said "we don't care what the   
   parents want, and you'll vote for the millage or else."  Well, the parents   
   called their bluff, voted the millage down, and the schools had to deal with   
   it.   
      
   But then they came up with a new plan:  The Shift and Shaft.  They shifted   
   school funding from millages to sales tax, shafting those people who have no   
   children and live in small homes/apartments.   
      
   Now the schools no longer have to listen to the parents at all.  The parents   
   don't have any leverage since we all have to pay the "school" tax all the time.   
      
   Eliminate the teacher's union.   
   Fund the schools directly from the community again.   
   Allow state money to follow the child to any school (public or private).   
      
   Think everything that the public schools hate and that's what we need.   
      
    IJ> I think of moving things from the Feds to the State is a "First" step.   
    IJ> But moving away from these Liberal Creeps who want to indoctrinate our   
    IJ> kids is an other huge step.   
      
   Yes.  It makes it much harder for the Elitists to push their Woke agenda.  It   
   also makes it easier for communities to take back their schools.   
      
   We also need to factor another thing in here:  The birth rate crash.   
   We just closed an elementary schools near me because of low enrollment due to   
   no kids of that age.   
      
   The school problem may fix itself with the drop in kids.  It's hard to demand   
   more money when you have fewer kids to teach.
