- Teachers need to be aware of the limitations of AI and how to use it effectively.
- AI should not be used to replace teachers, but rather to supplement their teaching.
- It is important to teach students how to critically evaluate information from AI sources.
- AI can be a great tool for leveling the playing field for students who do not have access to traditional resources.
- AI is a rapidly changing field, and it is important to stay up-to-date on the latest developments.
- The use of AI has ethical implications that need to be considered, such as privacy, data use, and copyright.
- The use of AI can also have a global impact, such as on energy consumption.
