Alphabet will switch several school AI tools and Search off by default, but schools can turn them back on. New York City's separate limit adds concern, with no wider sales change reported.

The AI's read

The mayor's accusation puts public criticism on Alphabet's role in schools. New York City's 1-year restriction covers nearly 600,000 students. But schools can restore the tools, and Guided Learning is being introduced. The story reports no wider sales change, so it shows no clear shift in Alphabet's wider business picture.
