About the school: The growth in the use and application of Artificial intelligence in education is amazing. It sure is the need of the hour. Some articles even go to the extent of talking about replacing teachers….AI is impressive, however the idea of teachers being fully replaced is utterly unrealistic according to me. I believe that the teachers have and will continue to play an important role in the education system. There are areas like communication, interpersonal relations and many more that cannot be taught with computers. Also, the reinforcement by teachers keeps a student-focused. Replacing teachers with an emotionally devoid machine, however advanced it may be, seems ruthless and scary.
