Despite the growth of some AI schools like Alpha, research doesn't show that AI tutors are
Over the past decade, the AI-focused, for-profit Alpha School has grown from one campus in Austin, Texas, to more than 15 schools across the country, including in major cities like New York and San Francisco.
Scientists and citizens are more persuasive than government and industry in mobilizing act

Lower-skilled workers could earn more in an AI world, research indicates
For anyone worried about AI's effects on jobs, here's good news: New research by Stanford economist Lukas Althoff concludes that artificial intelligence is likely to reshape jobs rather than eliminate entire occupations and will ultimately increase wages for all workers—with the

Disturbance has a greater effect on giant kelp productivity than resource availability
Marine scientists at UC Santa Barbara have found that disturbances to giant kelp forests have a major influence on their net primary productivity (NPP)—an indicator of an ecosystem's health and its ability to support its community—even more so than the availability of the resourc
