With the school year ending, all over the country educators and parents are taking stock of the drastic shift caused by artificial intelligence in the classroom. Today, Natasha Singer, a technology reporter, discusses the year that reshaped American classrooms and how one dedicated teacher helped his students chart their own path into an uncertain future. Guest: Natasha Singer, a technology reporter for The New York Times. Background reading:  Teachers say they want to equip high school students to drive A.I., rather than be mere passengers steered by chatbots. A.I. companies are urging teachers to prepare students for an “A.I.-driven future.” The American Federation of Teachers recommended “no screens” at all for those in second grade or younger, and no A.I. chatbots for students in elementary school.
