After two attacks against OpenAI founder Sam Altman, it's clear that a sense of powerlessness over AI is causing more than just run-of-the-mill concern. But we are in charge, here's why...
There is something wrong with the boy's hand. Also this statement, "At school, the question is no longer whether AI will be present, but how thoughtfully it is used." undercuts your argument. If parents had more power, the presence of AI in the first place would be more of a discussion, not a given.
Yes that hand is off-will fix! :) And thanks for your comment. What I was referencing (and not very clearly) is how the majority of technology already in the classroom contains some form of foundational AI built into it. We tend to talk about AI in terms of chatbots but it's of course much more expansive than this and is difficult to simply isolate and "turn off." So I think the conversation should be about how much technology there is in our classrooms overall and what it will take for our kids to thrive in a world where AI is inevitable. Neither address your concern though that parents don't feel like they have a say and that's not a win for anyone. Some schools are doing this better than others.
