A "transformation" is upon us. After a multi-year procession of educational technology products that once promised to shake things up, now it's AI's turn.
Global organizations like the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, as well as government bodies, present AI to the public as "transformative."
Prominent AI companies with large language model (LLM) chatbots have "education-focused" products, like ChatGPT Education, Claude for Education and Gemini in Google for Education.
AI products facilitate exciting new ways to search, present and engage with knowledge and have sparked widespread interest and enthusiasm in the technology for young learners. However, there are crucial areas of concern regarding AI use such as data privacy, transparency and accuracy.
