Always-On AI Agents: What Schools Need to Know

from AI for Educators Hosted by Dan Fitzpatrick | The AI Educator

OpenAI's always-on AI agents can now work around the clock. Here's what school leaders need to decide before they arrive in your district. This week's AI in education news: ChatGPT's new "dots" agents, the OpenAI model pulled over safety concerns, Meta's approval-first agent for small businesses, the America.gov AI assistant, the executive order directing federal agencies to say "Super Intelligence", Anthropic's leaked IPO prospectus, and Pope Leo XIV on AI risk. Each story comes with a practical action for principals, teachers and district leaders. Three actions for this week: build an agent register with an answer, draft, act rule, decide what student data never goes into shared AI workspaces, and put your AI vendors through a short risk and contract check.
