Matrix Education
While Mr.Smith types that run the matrix frequently will signal they seeks "creative and innovate solutions and people", in reality they “don't want a population capable of critical thinking, they want obedient workers, people just smart enough to run the machines and just dumb enough to passively accept their situation.” (as George Carlin put it). Schooling was not built to enhance creativity and critical thinking, but to shape people for conformity and submission. Despite the loud marketing chatter, AI - that's owned by Mr.Smith - will not change a thing about this dynamic, but likely make it even more extreme.
"The obedient always think of themselves as virtuous rather than cowardly" - Robert Anton Wilson
