Public schools in the city of Newark, in the state of New Jersey (USA), are exploring a new approach in early school networks by adopting Khanmigo, a new automated tool from Khan Academy.
This initiative has generated controversy, as the tool has the potential to replace the role of teachers in the classroom. The tool aims to provide an individualized learning experience for students, allowing them to progress at their own pace.

After carrying out tests in schools in Newark, in the United States, and based on the first results obtained, some districts are considering adopting the artificial intelligence tool in the next year academic. The idea has been confirmed day after day.
Newark students began using this automated teaching tool in May, and opinions about its effectiveness have been mixed so far.
The use of this innovative technology raises questions and generates debates about the benefits and possible challenges it can bring to education, aspects that certainly need to be discussed with clarity.
Has the replacement of human teachers started to be done?
In the view of specialists, the introduction of chatbots in the classroom can democratize tutoring by providing students with personalized responses and allowing them to progress at their own pace. The tool could also be useful for professionals themselves, if they are not replaced.
In contrast, critics raise lingering concerns about advanced technologies in the classroom. They warn that chatbots, by having access to a wide range of information and data, can inadvertently spread plausible misinformation, which makes their implementation a risky gamble.
In addition to these problems, it could result in the replacement of trained professionals and an increase in unemployment in education.
By all indications, the tests carried out in the US triggered positive and safe responses, being relatively thought out and scheduled for next year.
