The entire lives of the next generation will be mediated by artificial intelligence. So why aren't we teaching them how to use it? At The Exchange, SCSP Chair Eric Schmidt proposed a radical but necessary idea for the American education system: every university in the country should have a mandatory freshman-year class on how to use AI tools. AI isn't going away, it will be their friend, their psychologist, and their advisor. The most important thing we can do for the next generation is teach them how to harness the power of these tools. #EricSchmidt #ArtificialIntelligence #Education #HigherEd #TechInnovation #FutureOfWork #ai #college #genz
