China wants AI to prepare school lessons and mark homework

The Register · Simon Sharwood · last updated

China’s National Data Administration last Friday published its action plan for AI in education which calls for upskilling of the nation’s citizens to ensure they can put the technology to work.

The plan calls for classes on AI to become part of the curriculum at all levels of the education system, including vocational education.

Beijing also wants teachers taught how to use AI, and imagines AI will help them in the classroom by offering them support to prepare lessons and material for students.
