Google announced that schools using its education products will be opted out of its AI tools by default, and administrators will have to enable them manually in the coming months. The decision does not allow picking and choosing: the affected products are Gemini, Gemini Notebook, Gemini in Classroom and Google Search. According to Google's education VP Chris Phillips, search and AI are "deeply integrated," so a school that does not enable AI will also lose access to search.
