The paper cautions that AI could be a 'cognitive poison', limiting the progress of students, if the education system does not adapt.

Education must be reframed to integrate artificial intelligence in a way that can meet the "major challenges facing humanity", a conceptual research paper argues.

The University of Cambridge paper suggests that AI could be used to support students to learn and work collaboratively while drawing on different sources of knowledge.
