SFUSD has no AI policy. What does that mean for students?
San Francisco Unified School District has no policy governing the use of artificial intelligence, leaving unclear how AI tools are being used in schools and what protections, if any, exist for students.
Why this matters: When a school district has no AI policy, the default is not caution. It is whatever teachers, vendors, and platforms decide on their own. Students are minors. Their data is sensitive. The tools touching their schoolwork, behavior, and learning habits can be collecting far more than anyone realizes. SFUSD not having a policy does not mean AI is not being used there. It means no one has formally decided who is responsible when something goes wrong.
