The Pulse on AI 🫀

Schools are still scrambling to figure out how AI should be integrated (or not) into education. 

The bottom line? 

Most schools haven’t paused to ask: “Shouldn’t we be teaching different things?” 

Jon Stewart gave us a pulse of how most people feel about AI taking millions of jobs… but missed that students equipped with AI skills will be in great shape – a message that needs to reach our schools.

What’s Sizzling in Tech & AI? Let’s Dive In 🔥

• Education Revolution at Stanford: At the Stanford AI+Education Summit, the brainiacs of academia and the whizzes of the industry converged to explore AI's monumental potential in reshaping education. They shared how AI can boost students with molded personalized teacher support, tweaked learning priorities, and fearless learning environments.

• Healthcare’s AI Overhaul: Think of AI as the superhero sidekick for the medical realm – not ousting doctors but empowering them. Timothy Papandreou in Forbes discusses how AI is poised to turn our weary “sickcare” systems into dynamic healthcare wonders. Healthcare +AI tech continues to race ahead.

• The Clear Picture of AI: With Explainable AI (XAI), we’re peeling back the layers of AI’s brain to battle bias and discrimination. Yet, as Dilki Rathnayke points out in Tripwire, while XAI shines in clarifying AI’s moves and shaking up cybersecurity, it's no magic cure-all.
