The Argument for Why AI Can’t Replace Teachers

from Applied Intelligence

Is AI actually helping students learn? In this episode of Applied Intelligence, host Keith Richman sits down with Jason Robinovitz, an education business leader and micro-school founder, to discuss the real-world impact of AI in education. Jason shares why his school prioritizes human connection over screens, how he practically integrates tools like ChatGPT and Claude to empower teachers, and why heavily marketed "two-hour AI schools" might leave kids unprepared for the real world. They also dive into the ethics of AI in college applications and why AI might actually widen the educational gap rather than close it. Whether you're an educator, business owner, or parent navigating technology in the classroom, this conversation offers grounded, actionable insights on deploying AI without losing the human element.
