the kicker here:
this GCSE costs £27,000 per student per year
they’re paying this much not to have teachers
I’m trying to find any detail on what they actually do in this thing and I can’t find anything. As far as I can tell the AI does ??shit?? and the “learning facilitators” are the “teachers”.

I am well acquainted with this genre of article and I ain’t reading all that. Not bothering to be involved with this example was the obviously correct decision, even if Trace kept nagging after I’d already said “no thank you” (that famous rationalist grasp of consent).
This in the companion article caught my eye:

Trace, I have some unfortunate news for you.
It’s March 2025. Everyone has resigned from OpenAI except Altman, a single H1B programmer, 50 lawyers, and the guy who refills the keurig. The company is worth $4 trillion.
“There was a post, [pause], I forget who wrote it” <- the kind of thing I have said several times attempting to avoid leaking rationalist-evidence-bits.
gotta keep that power level under wraps
