[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids don't need to learn how to use AI in elementary or middle school or even most of high school.

Don't give them access to the internet. Have them learn to read and write and do math using pen, paper and calculators in school and MCPS will achieve more than it does now.[/quote]

You need to wake up and understand we live in a competitive world, one in which most children will access the internet, learn a ton, and use AI effectively. You cannot live like a digital Amish and then expect to benefit from the fruits of everyone's tech expertise later on in life.

I think for ES/MS AI shouldn't be allowed, but for maybe Jrs/Srs in HS, it makes sense for them to start learning how to use AI effectively.

Agree with a PP, AI is here to stay, and in today's job market, you need to know how to use AI.  This was the message that some commencement speakers at colleges tried to explain to graduates (much to their disgust, and those speakers got boo'd.  I do think the speakers were tone deaf about it).

It's not just the tech sector that's pushing AI on their employees.  It's happening in other industries, too.

My DC is a UMD and had one professor tell them that they can use AI but only for certain parts of the assignment.  DC has also used it for other purposes, but they always check the output.    UMD has its own AI tool (powered by OpenAI) that students can access.  I think colleges are now seeing the writing on the wall and incorporating AI use in its curriculum.[/quote]

College is a great time to learn to use AI, after you have learned fundamental writing and math skills[/quote]
I kind of agree with you, but I think HS kids will definitely use AI, and so putting guardrails around it makes sense. [/quote]
