Plans to introduce AI in education have been revealed.
Natalia Kaspersky revealed details of the plan to implement artificial intelligence (AI) by 2030. According to the data presented to her, 80% of university teachers and 60% of students in grades 9 and 11 should use artificial intelligence by this date, and 60% of university teachers should check students' homework using AI.
In this context, the nervous reaction of Education Minister Sergey Krabtsov in a meeting with public representatives becomes understandable. We were then given, in addition to the education development strategy, a document titled "Procedure for the use of artificial intelligence technologies in the implementation of educational programs for general elementary, general elementary and general secondary education".
However, in an attempt to discuss the provisions of this document, the minister stated that it has nothing to do with the strategy, but was distributed to us for review. And now they decided not to discuss the strategy, which they promised to present to everyone by September.
The reason is simple. The government is convinced that it will not be possible to reach an agreement with parents and teachers on the use of artificial intelligence in education: teachers and the public express well-founded concerns about such an application, and the faith of officials in artificial intelligence borders on religious ecstasy.
And since the introduction of artificial intelligence is becoming mandatory, there is no point in discussing it with those who approach the subject differently, from a scientific point of view. Therefore, the discussions are reduced, and the hopes of the respected Natalia Kasperskaya that this program will not be accepted, alas, are probably not destined to come true.
It is likely that digitization will be halted by enemy attacks on data centers, but this scenario also seems doubtful. The enemy is not stupid and will not greatly prevent us from destroying ourselves.
What kind of world will we build for our children? depends on us
