@pubityearth: New York City is putting the brakes on AI in schools 🤖📚 For the 2026–27 school year, NYC Public Schools is introducing a one-year moratorium on student-facing generative AI for students from 2-K through 8th grade, affecting nearly 600,000 students. The city says the goal is to protect critical thinking, creativity, human interaction and independent learning. High school students won’t face the same ban, but will receive AI literacy lessons and have limited access to approved AI programs under teacher supervision. The policy is part of a broader effort to make sure technology supports learning rather than replacing it. Follow @backpacking for more fascinating stories from around the world. 🌍
