Can artificial intelligence teach humans?

Yes, machine learning and deep learning algorithms may be used as a teaching aid, but it cannot replace teachers. Emotional intelligence should not be compromised at any stage.

How are chatbots being used in education?

Chatbots can help students find pathways to a solution. It can also be integrated with systems that tabulate how many students make mistakes. Chatbots can help tell the student why and where they are going wrong versus just asking for the answer and saying “Wrong,”with no help to get them on the correct path.

How is AI improving the experience of students with different learning needs?

When many students share a particular learning need, AI can learn from them.. For instance, Autistic children tend to learn better with simple repeated steps, like a recipe to follow. They write better when they are prompted to apply more pressure to their pencil. AI will learn these types of best practices and also help us measure other types of sensory skills. AI can be used to measure eye tracking to see what students are focusing on and for how long. This will help educators learn the best ways to present information and help them retain it.

How will AI impact the future of education?

AI can help personalize education. Students can learn at their own pace with more oriented tutoring. With adapted language education, supported by natural language processing (NLP), education content developed in one country can be used in another. AI and robotics can also be used to get students interested in STEM fields while also facilitating the acquisition of hard skills.
