About this episode

This episode discusses the education crisis in America and its implications for critical thinking and society.

The education crisis has reached a breaking point, and the consequences extend far beyond the classroom. America's education system cannot continue down this path without threatening the nation's ability to think critically, innovate, and preserve a free society. This episode explores how America is losing the ability to think, and it's more than a discussion about schools. Artificial intelligence did not create America's education crisis. It exposed it. This episode of The P.A.S.
