Google to Tie AI Features and Search in School Products by 2027

Google will disable AI features by default in its school products starting in 2027, allowing schools to opt in. However, schools that block AI entirely will also lose access to Google Search, as the two are now deeply integrated. This policy gives schools limited practical choice given Google's dominance in the US education market.

Given Google's grip on the US school market, that "choice" doesn't leave schools with much room to maneuver.
