Teachers are one of the professions least at risk of being automated. A job that requires emotional intelligence and flexibility — in adapting lesson plans on-the-fly to a particular group of children, for example — is not one particularly well-suited to robots. Artificial intelligence, however, still deserves a role in the classroom. This is not as a replacement for teachers, but as a tool or an assistant that can aid them both in trying to close the gap in achievement between the rich and the poor and in making up for lost teaching time during the pandemic.
教師是被自動化取代風險最小的職業(yè)之一。這是一份需要情商和靈活性的工作,例如根據某一群特定的兒童即時調整課程計劃,這種工作并不特別適合機器人。然而,人工智能仍然值得在課堂上扮演一個角色。不是作為教師的替代品,而是作為一種工具或助手,一方面幫助教師縮小富孩子和窮孩子之間的學業(yè)差距,另一方面彌補疫情期間失去的教學時間。
