WILLIAM BENNETT, JON HAGE: AI can mimic a teacher, but it cannot shepherd a soul

This summer, at the Sun Valley conference, media, tech, business, and cultural leaders gathered to discuss what is on all our minds: artificial intelligence and where it is taking us. We cannot hide from it any longer. AI will play a fundamental role in nearly everything we do, including how our children learn.

It is hard to deny the benefits. AI can tutor a struggling student at midnight, translate a lesson into a dozen languages, and free teachers from paperwork so they can spend more time with the kids in front of them.
