AI Teaching Assistant YourWai Raises Controversy in Brooklyn Schools
The Artificial Intelligence Podcast - En podkast av Dr. Tony Hoang

A new AI program called YourWai is being tested as a "teaching assistant" in high schools in Brooklyn, New York. Developed by Learning Innovation Catalyst, YourWai generates lesson plans for teachers based on students' needs and desired standards. While proponents believe this technology saves teachers time and promotes creativity, critics argue that lesson planning is a creative activity that should not be delegated to a machine. Concerns have also been raised about AI bias and inaccuracies. Despite the concerns, the use of AI in education is becoming more common, with educators utilizing it for administrative tasks and coaching. The pilot program aims to give teachers more time with students and prepare them for success. Responsible supervision is crucial for effective and unbiased AI use in education. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tonyphoang/message
