AI Homework Helper Gave My Kid the Wrong Answers for 6 Months
My son spent three months learning math from an AI tutor app. When I tested him, he insisted that 7 x 8 = 54. The app had taught him wrong. Every multiplication table, every formula, every concept was slightly off. The company's response? "Our AI learns from user interactions. Your son's mistakes may have trained the model incorrectly." They blamed a child for their algorithm's failure.
What You Can Do: Document everything. Screenshots, photos, timestamps. Every interaction matters. Demand a human. Keep asking. Keep escalating. File complaints with the FTC, your state attorney general, and the Better Business Bureau. Go public on social media and local news. Companies hate bad press more than they hate paying claims. Find others with similar experiences. There is power in numbers. Class actions are being filed across the country.
