Education will be one of the largest and soonest changes in our society. It's already being shown that with access to AI tools like chatbots, students are able to create many of the things they're supposed to learn and create in the classroom.
But there are opportunities to transform education instead of replace it with AI tools. Here are some thoughts about what might change and how.
One to one tutoring might be one of the biggest changes, which will allow students to learn much easier and have very direct help at the pace of the student.
Here is a TED Talk about it: https://www.youtube.com/embed/hJP5GqnTrNo
AI can train people better than humans will be able to. We might find that AI ends up teaching people much like in an apprenticeship. The one on one guidance can help train people in a variety of needed jobs and very quickly. We may not need years of schooling or expertise to master basic skills to do certain jobs.
In the future, it's likely that we will have brain to tech interfaces, which allow people to basically download information into their brains. If that happens, then education will fundamentally change in every way. Remember when Neo in The Matrix movie downloads a program into his head in mere seconds? That might actually be possible someday.
If technology improves to the point where we have access to all kinds of information at our fingertips with AI, it might be hard to determine what to teach. We might find that people will learn a lot of knowledge and skills in the classroom, only to find a few years later those are not needed anymore. It's something to be thinking about and we hope there are a lot of teachers thinking about the future and what we will do about it.
In the future, the skills that might be in the most demand, will be less about knowledge and more about experience with general things like troubleshooting and problem solving. Here are some important skills we think might be needed in the future the most:
