Brave New Words

The generative AI revolution has come to education. Salman Khan, the visionary behind Khan Academy with more than 150 million users, explores how artificial intelligence and GPT technology is already beginning to transform learning, offering a future roadmap for teachers, parents, and students to navigate this exciting (and sometimes intimidating) new world.The leading pioneer in the world of education technology, Khan explains the ins and outs of these cutting-edge tools and how they will forever change the way we learn and teach. How learning can be transformed for good. Rather than approaching the ChatGPT revolution with white-knuckled fear, Khan wants parents and teachers to embrace AI and adapt to it (while acknowledging its imperfections and limitations). He emphasizes that embracing AI in education is not about replacing human interaction but enhancing it, so that every student can complement the work they're already doing in profoundly new and creative ways, to personalize learning, adapt assessments, and support success in the classroom, preparing students for an increasingly digital future.But Brave New Words is not just about technology - it's about what this technology means for our society, and the practical implications for administrators, guidance counsellors, and hiring managers who can harness the power of AI in education and the workplace. Khan also delves into the ethical and social implications of generative AI, offering thoughtful insights into how we can use these tools to build a more accessible education system for students around the world.
