Singer explains the growing emphasis on “AI Literacy” in schools and why educators, policymakers, and tech companies are pushing students to make and effort to understand artificial intelligence. Describing how schools are starting to teach students hot to question, evaluate, and think critically about AI tools. Framing AI literacy as a necessary evolution of education.

I think this article does a good job of showing why AI literacy is now so essential. Whether you agree with it or not, AI is becoming more and more embedded in education and our workplaces.
