> This is going to be hilarious, giving kids prolonged access to these AI tools [..] we have the internet and wikipedia now, we have ipads in classrooms. They all have a role, and we have to incorporate them in sensible ways
I have three kids, and as far as devices used in education is concerned I become more of a Luddite with each passing day. I have yet to come across any actual evidence that shows children experience a net benefit from additional screen time.
The only exception is our 13 year-old, who currently is recovering from a dislocated and fractured right thumb due to being on the wrong end of a vicious tackle in school sport. He's still unable to hold a pen but found his iPad allows him to do various bits of schoolwork. This - fortunately - is the exception rather than the rule.
