How AI is Transforming Education: The Potential and Safeguards

Sal Khan, the founder of Khan Academy, recognizes the potential of AI in education. While AI technology like OpenAI’s GPT-4 can be used for cheating, Khan Academy has implemented safeguards in its GPT-powered tutor, Khanmigo. Khan envisions AI bots transforming the process of writing essays, acting as writing coaches for students. The future of education may involve alternative means of assessment, such as simulations or interviews. Khan Academy’s partnership with OpenAI aims to provide millions of students with access to AI-driven education through Khanmigo.
