An AI Bot for the Teacher<\/strong> — with thanks to Karthik Reddy for this resource<\/p>\n

Artificial intelligence is the stuff of science fiction \u2013 if you are old enough, you will remember those Terminator movies a good few years ago, where mankind was systematically being wiped out by computers.<\/p>\n

The truth is that AI, though not quite at Terminator level yet, is already a fact and something that most of us have encountered already. If you have ever used the virtual assistant on your phone or the Ask Google feature, you have used AI.<\/p>\n

Some companies are using it as part of their sales and marketing strategies. An interesting example is Lowe’s Home Improvement<\/a> that, instead of chatbots, uses actual robots into their physical stores. These robots are capable of helping customers locate products that they\u2019re interested in, taking a lot of the guesswork out of the entire shopping experience.<\/p>\n

Of course, there are a lot of different potential applications for AI that are very interesting. Imagine an AI teaching assistant, for example. They could help grade papers, fact check and assist with lesson planning, etc., all to make our harassed teachers\u2019 lives a little easier.<\/p>\n

Chatbots could be programmed as tutors to help kids better understand core topics if they are struggling with them, ensuring that they don\u2019t hold the rest of the class up. And, for kids who have a real affinity with the subject, help them learn more about what they are interested in.<\/p>\n

It could also help enhance long distance training.\u00a0 Imagine if your students could get instant answers to basic questions through a simple chatbot. Sure, if they were still not getting it, they would come through to you \u2013 the chatbot cannot replace a real, live, teacher after all. But it could save you a lot of time and frustration.<\/p>\n

Here, of course, we have only skimmed the surface of what artificial intelligence is capable of. Why not look through this infographic<\/a>\u00a0to see how different brands have been using this tech, and see what possible applications of it we might expect.<\/p>\n
