This isn't binary, teachers have limited bandwidth and supplementing real teaching with AI supported research can work.

Students need to understand what AI is and is not.

Something got lost as we transitioned from parents telling their kids to 'go play and do not come back until dinner is ready' to us handholding & driving our kids from one social/sport activity to the next.

While it causes fights with my kids, I blank refuse to do certain things for them (fix their internet connection, repair a toy or bike) I'll give them the tools and they know to ask when they get stuck.

The act of learning through failure is a dying art these days. It's 'teach to the test', stressed out teachers, parents having too much to do compounded by taking on second, third jobs in this economy.

Teaching our kids how to leverage AI is something parents should invest in. Its part of a broader education landscape.
