Artificial intelligence is known to benefit the education industry but it comes with some risks. Here are the top risks;
- Data Privacy Concern
Artificial intelligence uses the collected data which will be about students. This unauthorized access and data breaches may expose sensitive information about students. Thus a robust measure is required.
- Artificial Intelligence Bias
Artificial intelligence algorithms may have an existing bias from their training time which may lead to unfair results in terms of students. This may result in wrong outputs. Caution is to be taken for every use.
- Diminish Critical Thinking
Education is one domain that results in the growth of the human brain. If there is an overreliance on technology, it may impact the student’s mind, and their growth for life. One needs to take care of this risk when using artificial intelligence methods for education.
- Lack of Teacher Training:
All educators need to be aware of the technology methods and algorithms that artificial intelligence uses in their tech startup. If educators are not adequately trained, they will never be able to use the true power of artificial intelligence. This could limit its actual potential. Their personal bias may also come into action.
