I think that’s right. The tricky thing with GPTs is correctly interpreting the output. When I’m writing, I always need to double-check things with Lu (copy.lu).

Whatever debates we might have about AI in higher ed, is anyone actually advocating for AI in primary school? Seems self evident you would not want to do this. It’s so obvious elementary school is as much about social/emotional learning and you’re not going to get this from AI.

It's correct decision to do that, to depend on their own thinking and reasoning Not just ask LLM and get the answer Thinking is a skill as any other skill that needs practice

AI can instantly answer every question a child asks. But what children truly need is the ten minutes spent being stumped by a question.

Their Prime Minister is right to ban the use of AI in elementary schools, as most people who use AI to answer questions don't focus on retaining a set answer but rather answering whatever question was asked. So yes, elementary school students will miss a lot of steps, but this is still just my own opinion. However, I am more interested in how AI was used in elementary schools in the first place.
