AI gets lots of attention, both with respect to how its advancing scientifically and what impact it might have on the future of work. Less attention is paid to how AI might help learners learn. What are ways that we might take advantage of AI to make progress in this area?

I don't have an answer to this question, but I have a meta-question. How can we teach AI tools to a wider audience, to make them more widely useful?

To make this a more helpful comment: perhaps if we taught AI tools to educators, they would be able to tell us how the tools could help with learning.

Love the question ... but don't understand it. Can you provide some examples of AI tools? And are you thinking of something like App Inventor that lets non-technical people access AI tools in some way?

I can imagine how image recognition works--feed the AI a bunch of tagged images so that it can figure out the patterns to identify what's in a non-tagged image. Is this AI an example of an AI tool?

I can imagine the AI in an autonomous vehicle. It processes a bunch of sensor information, coupled with map info and perhaps info from other autonomous vehicles. It then uses all of this information to navigate and monitor road conditions. Is this AI an example of an AI tool? Or would an AI tool be a tool that I use to evaluate/understand the autonomous vehicle AI?
