If you think ChatGPT and other AI tools are far away from being part of your child’s K-12 education, think again. In fact, they may have already arrived.
Since ChatGPT was introduced in late 2022, it’s been embraced by college professors for its ability to tailor instruction, earned a passing score on sections of the bar exam, and even completed freshman year at Harvard University with a 3.34 GPA. While AI-powered large-language models are already transforming higher education, many K-12 educators are still grappling to understand the role this new technology might play in the classroom. Concerns that the technology will weaken students’ critical thinking skills and encourage them to cheat have led some K-12 school districts to restrict or ban the use of AI.
