A new bill introduced by Senators Adam Schiff and Mike Rounds would award grants to the National Science Foundation—which has endured massive funding cuts under the Trump Administration for science research—to put “AI literacy” in schools.
How about including an AI disinformation in this literacy class? Or using AI as a search engine to do fact checking. But I think they really mean “use AI for everything in schools and feed the data back to us” classes.
I mean as a search engine it is more efficient than google as it stands. And it can give references. Like everything though it can be forced to be biased and enshittified so hard to predict if it will stay that way.

You mean not using AI for fact checking?!?
Like, teaching them how to fact check everything AI says, because it’s rubbish?

It’s not forced to be bias they have that inherently built in.
And they will make up refrences all the time, or even “understand” wrong.
LLMs have their use cases along side search engines but they aren’t replacement for them
they already have data how AI hurts students ability to read and write proficiently.
