Education secretary Gillian Keegan is launching a call for evidence on using artificial intelligence (AI) like ChatGPT in schools “to get the best” out of the new technology.
Keegan will tell the London Tech Week conference she wants to “kick start a conversation” with experts on using generative AI in a “safe and secure way”.
She believes teachers’ day-to-day work could be “transformed” by the emerging tech and help with workload, but that the standard is not yet there.
It comes a mid growing debate about the role AI should play in education – with fears it could be used for cheating by students.
