AI & Education

★ The real danger for children with AI in education is "cognitive stunting". ~ Metta Zetty

"Artificial Intelligence cheats us, and especially our children, with the promise that our intellectual development will be enhanced when it does the heavy lifting for us. Less obviously, digital technology pushes us to misunderstand education simply as the transfer of information, not, as Plato argued, 'a turning around of the whole soul'. Our students’ willingness to swallow these lies stems from the failure of teachers in the humanities to demonstrate the tangible benefits of reading and writing about difficult books. Worse, the dominant approaches to teaching in these fields conspire to hide and even deny this power." ~ Chris Nadon | Source
