In this week’s episode of The Intersect, I’m joined by Google’s Pedagogy Team Lead, Julia Wilkowski, to discuss the role of AI in the classroom and its implications for the future of learning. We touch on key issues in education including privacy, accessibility, and the overall ethics of AI-driven learning.

The world of education is changing faster than ever, and as AI becomes a part of our everyday lives, how we learn and how we teach has been completely upended. Together we dissect the evolving role of the teacher, how AI tools like Google LearnLM are shaping the future of education, and what it will take for these technologies to truly benefit students and educators.
