In classrooms from California to Seoul, students are learning from something that isn’t human.

AI tutors are grading essays, generating lessons, and answering questions in perfect patience. Systems like Khanmigo, ChatGPT Edu, and Squirrel AI are redefining education — personalized, adaptive, relentless.

A student in Lagos can learn advanced physics from an AI coach that never sleeps. A dyslexic child can get one-on-one reading help with infinite patience. For the first time in history, education scales as fast as software.

But teachers aren’t obsolete — they’re evolving. The best educators are using AI as co-instructors, freeing themselves from grading and focusing on what machines can’t replicate: empathy, mentorship, inspiration.

The danger, though, is algorithmic bias. If AI decides what a “good” answer looks like, creativity could flatten. Learning becomes prediction, not exploration.

Education isn’t just about knowledge — it’s about meaning. As classrooms go digital, the question isn’t “Can AI teach?” but “Can it care?”
