I have a feeling NYC school test scores will get a lot higher under Mamdani. Reports suggests more tech doesn't mean better education. It just creates more distractions.

I recently attended a parents night at my daughter's school where one of the teachers laid out the schools new AI policy and guidelines which were the result of at least a year of research. My favorite slide was the don't and do of AI under the new policy.
Don't: Use AI
Do: Not use AI
This school also generally limits the usage of technology. They do have laptops on hand, but they come out only for very specific subjects such as coding or robotics classes, both of which are optional classes.
This is right in line with my thinking. You don't teach math to a second grader by handing them a graphing calculator. You need to learn to do things manually first before you start letting the machines do it for you so you understand it
Why not at hs as well?
