Jim Stone: THE EFFECT OF AI ON EDUCATION - It is going to wreck education no matter...

AI is now touching everything, from Pokemon posts to Facebook to the deep secrets at SpaceX. If Elon Musk thinks he's keeping the NSA AI out of his business, he's not, it is not possible. In short, AI is now touching everything in the electronic medium.

A primary objective of AI is to recognize and steal secrets and creativity, filter them from what is useless, and present everything worth stealing in easy access form to those controlling the AI. But the most prominent use of AI at this time is to have AI listen to public discourse, so that discourse can be manipulated for political gain, trend setting, and profit.

So how would this affect education? The answer to this question is not found within the AI itself, the answer is found in the objectives of those who own the AI. If those who own the AI wanted everyone to be christian, they could quickly gain data that could be used to persuade the population into being more christian. However, if they wanted to use the AI to find ways to convince little boys in school that they are really girls in boy's bodies, and they therefore need to transform into being girls, it could also be easily done. So the effect of AI on education depends solely on how the AI is used.

The decisions AI makes are heavily influenced by the opinions of those who programmed the AI. And if the AI is used to tutor or teach the children, the decisions about what an individual child really needs will become inherent in the software the AI is using and the bias of those who wrote the software, rather than live human input based in first person contact from a human teacher. In other words, because the AI is not actually able to run with the child, laugh with the child, or truly learn the child because it has no real contact with the child, education will become very generic and will carry the bias of the programmers if everything is done as the AI dictates.

Problem: that is exactly what the elite, who rule society from the top down want. The elite want a predictable population that can be manipulated predictably via the administration of uniform education with little individuality. And they will do this while they preach a never ending mantra about diversity and individuality. AI simply cannot accomplish truly diverse outcomes because the opinions of whoever programmed the AI will be evident in every child the AI touches.
