Digdeep Podcast: Will School Still Work When AI Becomes the New Classmate?

News From the Digital World by MCML PI Frauke Kreuter and Christof Horn

In this episode of #digdeep Jochen Kuhn and Florian Karsten explore how school will change when children grow up with AI and chatbots that can provide knowledge at any time and even take over tasks.

This raises the fundamental question of whether we are increasingly outsourcing our own thinking to machines. At the same time, the traditional concept of education is faltering because it is becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish between what comes from humans and what comes from AI.

In conversation with educational researchers it becomes clear that AI is now an integral part of both schools and children's bedrooms. At the same time, it becomes apparent that there are currently more open questions than clear answers regarding the use of AI in the education system.

Just listen in (podcast in German).
