UNESCO Calls for Regulations on AI Use in Schools

Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools, such as ChatGPT, have recently been made available to the public. These apps can create automated text, images, videos, music, and even software code. All these platforms have been improving quickly and are already used by millions of people worldwide, including many students. However, very few countries have established rules to ensure the safe and ethical use of these AI tools.

Audrey Azoulay, Director-General of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) mentioned “using AI in education should not happen without involving the public and a serious analysis of its implications, as well as creating the necessary protections and rules by the governments.” She stressed that “AI can bring great opportunities for human development, but it can also be harmful and lead to unfair treatment.”

Consequently, UNESCO has created some guidelines that can help international leaders formulate specific regulations. The major goal for these common recommendations is to ensure a similar approach to the matter internationally. This will allow teachers to make the most of the many advantages of AI while prioritizing the interests of learners.

UNESCO's guidance is the first effort to set a global standard. It suggests prompt actions that can be taken to make certain that technology serves people's needs. This includes requiring the protection of data privacy and considering that AI tools should only be used in the classroom by those above the age of 13. The recommendations also outline that AI providers should safeguard that AI is used not only effectively but also ethically. Finally, the guidelines emphasize the importance of educational institutions testing AI systems to confirm they are suitable for students.
