Alex Kotran, founder of The AI Education Project, emphasizes the need for AI literacy in schools. He argues that while AI tools can be beneficial, they should not replace critical thinking and personal engagement in learning. Kotran advocates for a curriculum that prepares students for a future where AI is prevalent, focusing on essential skills rather than just technical knowledge.
