Abstract

This article investigates the "funereal state" to which educational rituals have devolved amidst the dominance of AI-governed learning environments. It examines how the educational process is transforming from a human social act saturated with symbols into dry, algorithmic operations. Utilizing a theoretical approach based on Digital Ethnography, we analyze the phenomenon of "Anthropological Alienation" experienced by the educational actor both "teacher" and "learner" as behavioral automation swallows the spirit of the ritual, reducing human existence to mere measurable data. The study posits that "Algorithmic Governance" does not merely develop education but reconfigures the very concepts of "presence" and "interaction". This leads to the death of traditional practices that once formed the core of educational culture, culminating in a precise anthropological characterization of the new educational reality one that demands a reconsideration of how educational identity is formed within the digital space.
