Two experience educators discuss whether teachers and students really engage with AI in a positive way. They offer an insight into the potential use of AI in education, about its positive use and how to deal with the negative use of AI by our students, and how schools should deal with the matter.

They also discuss the further development of artificial intelligence has put a new challenge in front of educators worldwide, especially since 2022 and with the emergence of generative models.
