Impact of AI in the field of Education
Education transcends all layers, classes and strata of society. There is always this challenge of finding the best teacher. There always also is a challenge of having sincere students.
Will AI help? Will it make education holistic? Will it stay within ethical boundaries? What should we do to build the guardrails? Will it complicate things more?
