Artificial intelligence is rapidly entering Indian classrooms, prompting a reevaluation of traditional education. While AI offers personalized learning and administrative support, concerns persist regarding its accuracy, ethical use, and potential for students to rely on automated answers. Teachers and school leaders are seeking clearer guidance and training for responsible integration. India plans to introduce AI as a subject from Class 3 by 2026-27, with boards adding modules on AI literacy and computational thinking, signaling a shift towards prioritizing critical thinking and judgment over rote memorization.
