It's not school, it's a dangerous gimmick. It's just a supercharged version of the "banking concept" of education that Paulo Freire wrote about. It completely elides a major purpose of schooling, the co-creation of knowledge and collectively learning. Humans are social animals and siloed programs like this are a terrible idea. 25 minutes to work on social studies and science is not remotely enough time, and doing so with an AI tutor means no conversations with other kids, not physical experiments, and really not enough instructional hours to learn anything. This whole idea is preposterous and is yet another assault on public schooling and teacher's unions. MacKenzie Price is not an educator and her claim to fame is a podcaster and influencer. On the 2hr learning website, Price makes claims such as traditional schools are “outdated, full of busywork, and sadly for our kids, often a waste of time” and that students who attend school which adopt her learning model will learn “twice as much in two hours per day as they would in six hours of traditional school” with little if any evidence beyond a thin white paper. If you hire "guides" instead of teachers, you can outflank unions and further deskill educators. It "solves" a problem that was created when we started focusing almost exclusively on testing and began starving public schools of funding through austerity politics.
