A Deloitte executive (@fidjissimo) shared that he moved his daughter to Alpha School, which delivers personalized AI-driven academics in just 2 hours per day, leaving the afternoon for life skills — and says she's already "a different kid" after a few weeks. Quoting the post, electronica quipped that if such schools are mainly about torturing kids for fewer hours daily, they're almost certainly better: "schools are like homeopathic medicine — the less you use, the better."
