Is teaching facing artificial intelligence Armageddon?

Anthony Seldon is one of Britain’s leading educationalists and social commentators. He has served as a close adviser to former leaders, including Tony Blair and David Cameron. In recent years, he has turned his attention to the ongoing impact of new technologies, in particular, artificial intelligence (AI), on education and on society, writes Kyran Fitzgerald.

With Oladimeji Abidoye, Mr Seldon recently published The Fourth Education Revolution: Will Artificial intelligence Liberate or Infantilise Humanity?

He does not pull his punches, warning that we may be “sleepwalking into the biggest potential disaster of modern times”.
