Could AI Replace Human Beings as Teachers?
While it is exciting for some people to consider, and equally frightening for others to ponder, the idea that computers or robots could replace human beings as educators, I don't believe that this will really happen. Robots cannot replace doctors, for example, but surgeries with more and more sophisticated technology can and does assist doctors to perform complex surgeries. I think that robots could serve as teacher's assistants, for example, leading a particular group of students through a specific lesson, but I think human beings would still be in charge. As the article I found suggests, human beings learn best by modeling or learning from other human beings. Mirror neurons found in our brains dictate this relationship. Unless the robots could replicate humans in a way in which we can't even imagine, I think it's safe to remain in the profession.
