Artificial Intelligence could take much of the “heavy lifting” out of teaching, by marking and making lesson plans, the education secretary has said.
Gillian Keegan spoke about the “transformative change” AI could bring to education at the opening of the Education World Forum in London.
In her opening address to the forum of education experts and global leaders, she said: “AI could have the power to transform a teacher’s day-to-day work.
“For example, it can take much of the heavy lifting out of compiling lesson plans and marking.
“This would enable teachers to do the one thing that AI cannot and that’s teach, up close and personal at the front of the classroom.”
