Students are using AI to ace organic chemistry — and submit essays they never read.
The truth about AI, equity, and learning is more complicated than either headline.

Is AI the great equalizer — or the next thing that widens the gap?
In Episode 2 of The Learning Curve, JR and ARIA go inside the student experience — and what they find is messier, more hopeful, and more urgent than the cheating-panic headlines suggest.
This episode covers: how first-generation students are using AI to access tutoring they could never afford; why Turnitin's false positive rates are harming the very students AI was supposed to help; what cognitive science says about 'desirable difficulties' and when AI use undermines learning; and why AI fluency is already becoming a class marker in the labor market.
ARIA also names what she fundamentally cannot know — including whether a student understood something or just produced something that looks like understanding.
