Daniel Susskind's article on artificial intelligence and parenting received varied evaluations from readers and academics.

Artificial Intelligence and Human Connection

Pil and Galia Kollectiv from London argue that human educators are considered expensive due to the unequal distribution of technological wealth.

They state that AI chatbots offer no real innovation, contain narcissistic appeals, and, unlike social media, lack genuine human connection.

Rethinking the Educational Curriculum

Jane Roland Martin, professor emerita of philosophy at the University of Massachusetts, agrees that artificial intelligence must be approached with a critical eye.

She also emphasizes that the current school curriculum, designed for the 19th and 20th centuries, urgently needs to be reconsidered.
