S7E05 - Browser Bots are Doing the Homework
Manage episode 510038939 series 2538581
Agentic AI is coming hard-baked into browsers, and it's absolutely frictionless to have it complete homework. Brent & Tim discuss Google's (NOT paused) Homework Helper and Perplexity's Comet browser as examples of ways AI companies are proactively dismantling the learning process while claiming to support students.
This is a bit of a dark one, but we've got to discuss these things.
