<p>God, I hate AI. And I love this interview. Jesse Dukes, producer of the magnificent podcast on AI in schools called <a target="_blank" href="https://www.teachlabpodcast.com">The Homework Machine</a>, discusses the findings his podcast team lays out about the complicated ins and outs of a “drunk guy” (as I put it) who has “crashed the party” (as Jesse and The Homework Machine puts it). Jesse (not the drunk guy) is <em>so</em> articulate and <em>so</em> sensitive to the information his team’s research gathered and reported that listening to him talk is just plain enjoyable! Whether you care about AI in schools or not!</p><p>But you should care.</p><p>This is a super important and complicated issue. Please listen. It’s food for thought we really need to digest.</p><p><em>Listen now on </em><a target="_blank" href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/teaching-through-emotions/id1589863153"><strong><em>Apple Podcasts</em></strong></a><strong><em>, </em></strong><a target="_blank" href="https://open.spotify.com/show/1SHSUCix3g2TVeAUXlSFfg"><strong><em>Spotify</em></strong></a><em>, or </em><a target="_blank" href="https://pod.link/1589863153"><strong><em>wherever you get your podcasts</em></strong></a><strong><em>.</em></strong></p><p>We discuss</p><p>* multiple “disruptions” in schools (not just AI)</p><p>* how teachers are responding (and could be) to AI</p><p>* the shocking reality of how districts are responding to AI</p><p>* how students are responding to AI (you might be surprised) — and why</p><p>For our non-teacher teachers: Hear Jesse’s wisdom: If you want to feel hopeful, talk to a teenager.
