Though the teen claimed he was “just trolling,” officials stressed the seriousness of the act, sparking debate over AI surveillance in schools.

Fourth and fifth graders at Alpha School in Austin, Texas, aren't just learning — they're pioneering education's new frontier. Every click and every keystroke is guided by artificial intelligence.

Students spend only two hours in the morning on science, math and reading, working at their own speed using personalized, AI-driven software.

Adults in the classroom are called guides, not teachers, and earn six-figure salaries. Their job is to encourage and motivate.

When asked if an algorithm replaces the expertise of a teacher, guide Luke Phillips said, "I don't think it's replacing, I think it's just working in tandem."

Afternoons at the school are different. Students tackle projects, learn financial literacy and public speaking — life skills that founder MacKenzie Price says are invaluable.

"There is such a huge advantage when students can be met at the level and pace of learning that is right for them," Phillips said.
