AI Tutors Are Outreporting Teachers. Parents Are Taking Notes.

The posts that landed this week did not argue that AI tutors are better teachers — they argued that AI tutors are better reporters ^[3][5]. That is a narrower and more actionable claim, and it is the kind institutions are poorly equipped to rebut. A teacher can explain that their relationship with a student carries context no email can capture. They cannot explain why their written summaries are less detailed or less frequent than those a children's app produces as a byproduct of normal operation.
