The long read: With 850 million children worldwide shut out of schools, tech evangelists claim now is the time for AI education. But as the technology’s power grows, so too do the dangers that come with it

For a child prodigy, learning didn’t always come easily to Derek Haoyang Li. When he was three, his father – a famous educator and author – became so frustrated with his progress in Chinese that he vowed never to teach him again. “He kicked me from here to here,” Li told me, moving his arms wide.

Nope not possible 🤓

No but they can complement the learning

No, the human interaction, friendship, people skills, genuine laughs are the best bits

No, children need direct social interaction with their peers to develop key social skills. Remote schooling from home due to school closures is going to be very tough on them.

Nope.. some level of social interaction is required because we have nervous systems that require emotional feedback on some level beyond “learn/understand this”

Sorry answer: no. I wouldn't have gotten through online-only education

No. Can computers, themselves, make you laugh? Make you friends for life? Can they play wally or tick? Swap football cards or pass notes? Listen to people who have bad stuff going in their lives? Laugh or cry with a friend? Share a crafty sweet?

Yes, with a transition phase.

Guess we're going to find out, right about now.

A record player can replace a classroom

No.

Wish they had when I was at school. Away from the pecking order and useless schooling. But, computers weren't out then. Home schooling has great benefits for autistic kids and, curbs pack mentality and bullying. Geniuses can thrive alone. Solitude is not lonely social isolation

No, and this isn't helpful when we have zero choice right now!

Mae’r ffôn symudol eisoes wedi meddiannu’r ystafell ddysgu. Y cam naturiol nesaf? Y cyfrifiadur fydd yr ystafell ddosbarth. Dyma foment bwysig yn hanes addysgu. Dyma’r trobwynt.

Open source AI for each child, teaching in the most effective way for the individual. Monitored and updated centrally by the best educational brains.

Probably not BUT real life skills that have been lacking for awhile certainly can, combined with structured classroom style for those who prefer it. For example breaking down the math and science of cooking = practical application. SO many creative ways to learn

No!

No.

Yes

Never

Yes

No

Ask the kids. I know what their answer would be!

Let’s hope so, we need them to now!
