        It seems like a fine question to me? I don’t see any mention of what the AI was used for in the article. FWIW, this is the first sentence for me:

        Norway is imposing a near ban on the use of generative AI tools by elementary school pupils while also restricting their ​use in the education of older children to prevent a ‌negative impact on learning, the country’s prime minister said on Friday.

        So it says that it is being used, but not for what.

            That doesn’t tell me how it supposedly educates Norwegian primary schoolers. I assume they’re not sitting in front of a laptop typing “teach me something” into ChatGPT all day long?

    The right call.

    AI is basically completely unstudied as a learning tool, and every indication points to it actually making people more stupider, lazier, and with far worse critical thinking skills. It’s a technology which frankly causes more problems than it even claims to solve, and it completely undermines the concepts of homework and “showing your work”.

    School is going to need to adapt to the existence of modern LLMs as an antagonistic force to learning.

    Good. If we’re being realistic, AI is not going anywhere and it needs to be perseved as a simply a tool among others. Humans still need to be experts. Children needs to learn how to think critically so that they can use it effectively
