Teachers and parents weigh benefits and risks of artificial intelligence in schools
Artificial intelligence is rapidly being integrated into many facets of life, including in America’s classrooms. As more school districts integrate AI into learning, we hear from parents and teachers grappling with the use of the technology in the classroom, and Stephanie Sy discusses more with Justin Reich, author of "Failure to Disrupt: Why Technology Alone Can’t Transform Education."
