About, With, Through, Without, Against: Five Ways to Learn AI

In About, With, Through, Without, Against: Five Ways to Learn AI, Leon Furze pushes back against simplistic binaries about whether AI helps or harms learning. He argues that young people are adaptable and capable, and proposes five overlapping approaches to thinking about AI in education. Learning about AI covers AI literacy—how to use and understand the technology—but Furze warns against making every teacher responsible for teaching AI skills. Learning with AI includes tutor chatbots and using AI for feedback, though he remains skeptical about personalized learning claims. Learning through AI treats the technology as a conduit or medium, like semantic search engines.
