Japan has announced plans to introduce AI-powered robot teachers in elementary and secondary schools. The initiative aims to support human teachers, especially in subjects like mathematics, science, and foreign languages. The robots will use advanced machine learning algorithms to assess students’ progress and provide personalized lessons. Education experts believe this will help address teacher shortages and enhance learning experiences. However, some critics worry that over-reliance on AI could reduce human interaction in education. The project will be tested in selected schools before being implemented nationwide.
