#antiai #schoolsI had a chance to speak today at the ward meeting for our kid’s School District. They get input on from parents and kids and teachers on various subjects. Today's topic was "Concerns about technology in the classroom".The kid's session was just finishing up as I arrived for the parents session. Going around the table, each of the about 25 people, a mix of parents, school council members, and teachers had an opportunity to voice their opinions, concerns etc.Officially there was no focus on AI to allow for other topics, but AI use was the majority topic. Most of the concerns raised were about honesty/cheating, how to use AI appropriately, skill atrophy from AI and other tech use.I was 3/4 the way around the table. I was the first to speak about the ethical, moral, environmental and industry capture hazards.Raising those issues I posed this rhetorical question: Is this something we want to normalize with allowing/endorsing it's use and thus the harms?
