Brave New Words: How AI Will Revolutionize Education (and Why That´s a Good Thing) – Khan Salman (2024)

The AI revolution is coming to education whether we like it or not. Salman Khan, the visionary behind Khan Academy, explores how artificial intelligence and GPT technology will transform learning, offering teachers, parents and students a roadmap for navigating this exciting and sometimes intimidating new world. As an insider in educational technology, Khan explains how these cutting-edge tools work and how they will permanently change the way we learn and teach. Rather than meeting the ChatGPT revolution with fear, he encourages parents and teachers to embrace AI and adapt to it while acknowledging its imperfections and limitations, so that every student can complement their existing work in profoundly new and creative ways, personalise learning, adapt assessments and support success in the classroom. The book also examines what this technology means for society and considers practical implications for administrators, guidance counsellors and hiring managers who can harness AI in education and the workplace. Khan explores the ethical and social implications of AI and GPT as well, offering thoughtful insights into how these tools can help build a more accessible education system for students around the world.
