Stevens Point offers new high school classes focused on AI ethics
A school district in Stevens Point has added new high school courses focused on AI ethics. The classes appear aimed at preparing students to think critically about artificial intelligence and its implications.
Why this matters: Teaching AI ethics in high school is a practical idea. The students in these classes will graduate into a world where AI makes decisions about hiring, credit, medical care, and criminal justice. If they understand how those systems work and where they can go wrong, they are harder to manipulate and more likely to push back when something is unfair. The earlier that thinking starts, the better.
