Presentation

This research project examines the implications of “distributed intelligence” in the age of generative AI for children's learning goals and the development of corresponding skills. Much of the lifelong learning agenda involves learning to master and design distributed intelligence using material, social and symbolic resources outside the mind. Generative AI is an extraordinarily powerful new tool for achieving distributed intelligence, altering the division of labour between humans and machines. But what are the implications for children's educational goals and learning?
