In announcement geared to schools, tech giant showed how entwined AI is with the world’s most popular website

Google just acknowledged that you can’t use Google Search without using artificial intelligence.

The search giant announced a slate of new AI products for classrooms and schools on Tuesday as well as more ways for teachers and schools to limit or restrict use of those AI tools. The company said the schools should have control over whether students use AI in the classroom. There’s one catch, though: if a school or teacher blocks the use of Google’s AI features, students won’t be able to use Google Search.
