đź§  Education at a Crossroads: Can AI Replace Classrooms?

Hey friends, TGIF!

The first classroom I remember wasn’t powered by technology — it was powered by patience.

Chalk dust in the air.
Fifty students repeating the same line in unison.
And one teacher who somehow believed in every single one of us.

It wasn’t efficient.
But it was alive.

Back then, knowledge felt like a place — a rhythm, a relationship, a shared breath of curiosity.

Today, it’s a prompt away.

The printing press made books accessible.
The internet made knowledge borderless.
And now, artificial intelligence is making learning personal.

But with every revolution comes a reckoning. Can AI truly replace classrooms? Or is it here to remind us what made them sacred in the first place?

In this edition, we’ll explore the crossroads education stands at today — where algorithms meet empathy, and data meets meaning.

Here’s what we’ll dive into:

  • How AI tutors like Khanmigo and Squirrel AI are redefining what “personalized learning” really means.

  • Why the World Economic Forum’s latest report argues that AI won’t replace teachers — it’ll amplify them.

  • The real tension behind adaptive learning: personalization versus privacy.

  • How AI is entering the emotional side of classrooms — from grading essays to tracking stress.

  • And finally, what the classroom of 2035 might look like: a hybrid space where humans teach why, and AI teaches how.

Let’s uncover whether this new wave of AI is a threat to education — or its greatest second chance.
