The AI Toolkit for K-12 Education

Is AI a good or bad thing?

AI is neither good nor bad: it’s morally neutral. AI is simply a tool that can be used in a variety of ways. How tools are used is determined by the humans who operate them. AI is no different. For example, take a hammer. It can be used by humans to do good things, like build birdhouses. But it can also be used by humans to do bad things, like break into vehicles. AI is the same way: humans determine whether how it’s used is good or bad.

What is Generative AI?

While AI has been around for a long time, generative AI (or GenAI) is a fairly new innovation. GenAI are tools capable of creating original text, images, video, audio, etc. Humans simply tell the program what they want it to create, and in seconds the tool creates it. You’ve likely heard of or used some of the popular GenAI programs. Most of them are free or low-cost, and simple for the average person to operate. No advanced technical skills are needed.
