This Is How Kids Should Be Learning with AI | Priya Lakhani | TED
As AI races into classrooms, we risk confusing quick and easy answers with true learning, says AI education entrepreneur Priya Lakhani. She explains why being challenged is essential for making knowledge stick — and how AI can be designed to strengthen (not weaken) learning, teaching and thinking.(Recorded at TEDNext 2025 on November 10, 2025 Join…

Unboxing Apple’s New $549 AirPods Max 2 in Purple
At first glance, the AirPods Max 2 don’t seem like much of an upgrade from their predecessor. But when you factor in the improved noise canceling, sound quality, voice-calling performance and new features, they do seem to be about 20% better than the previous model. That may not seem like a huge difference, but it’s…

You’re right. They shouldn’t be using AI full stop. They should be using AI full go. Especially if their parents are telling them to believe that there’s a magical man in the sky that watches everything and donkeys can talk (Numbers 22:30).

Yeah why don’t we just shut down all of the libraries and burn all the books while we’re at it. Might as well make computers and the internet illegal while we’re at it. For that matter let’s get rid of cars; airplane; electricity and let’s just all go back to February 17th 1600.

I’m using ChatGPT to read the Yoga Sutras right now. Turns out that’s the best way to read the Yoga Sutras because it’s very densely packed and with no explanation of each individual Sutra. ChatGPT walks you through them one at a time. I literally printed out what it said and I’m reading it as a book. It all started with one simple question: “What is Raja Yoga” and then I just fell down the rabbit hole.
@Living_Marionette
January 29, 2026 at 11:43 am
You aren’t doing jack then. ChatGPT is doing all the work. You are not doing a dang thing. You printed it out? lol really? Wow. Why not just read the actual literature then? Printing out chatgpt summarized garbage MEANS NOTHING! You are the epitome of a lost cause when it comes to humanity. Go read a real book.

Unlike the other toxic written reply, I want to ask how do you really know you’re truly reading it? If you’ve never read the original that means you can never correct AI’s mistakes. You’re reading a fake that’s been generated to your personal liking.
It’s valid to have personal enjoyment however you like, but I don’t think it’s valid to say you’re reading Yoga Sutras because you’re not.
@liquidbraino
January 29, 2026 at 5:40 pm
@FranksAnimeClub Nobody reads the yoga sutras in its original language unless you can read Sanskrit.
Also – I’m not 25 years old. I’ve been around for a while; have already been practicing Kundalini Yoga for a few years; have already read hundreds of books on yoga; meditation; consciousness; participated in parapsychology experiments with Stanford University; went to college to become a clinical hypnotherapist in 1997; participated in the Gateway Program with the Monroe Institute etc – I’m not new to all of this.
And I can still read other books on the subject; watch YouTube videos etc. It’s not like I don’t have the ability to explore consciousness on my own and verify whether or not what I’ve read is accurate or not. If you read a book about particle physics you have to take the authors word for it unless you happen to own a multi-billion dollar particle accelerator.
EVERYONE has access to their own mind and can conduct their own experiments with consciousness and have their own experiences. And to quote Richard Feynman “If it disagrees with experiment or experience – it’s wrong”. In that simple statement is the key to science. It doesn’t matter WHO said it; what his credentials are or even if it was an AI that said it – if it disagrees with experiment or experience…. its wrong.

1:40 min in and that is a VERY concerning statement. We have all this stuff telling us what to do so why not have AI do the same in the classroom? No. The constant bombardment of ads and social media and the fast paced society we live in is destroying us. AI’s benefits are significantly outweighed by it downsides.

AI is bad, period for education and people in general. Sure it has its place maybe in the background of the scientific community helping to do calculations, but it has zero place educating anyone. It is going to make people from teachers to students and everyone else incredibly lazy. No one will remember anything and let AI do all the thinking. AI is cursed and going to ruin humanity and is already well on its way.
EDIT: EVERYONE SHOULD REPORT EVERY PRO-AI VIDEO AS MISINFORMATION AND SAY DOWN WITH AI IN IT. DO NOT TOLERATE AI TAKING OVER OUR WORLD. IT IS WORTHLESS AND GOING TO DO NOTHING BUT MAKE PEOPLE EVEN MORE LAZY AND IGNORANT AND NEEDS TO BE REMOVED. DO NOT GIVE IN.

Thank You 🫶🏻 AI has helped me learn knowledge like I never believed, reassuring me that my new understandings might not be heard by the ones in front of me. But at least within myself I know truly how intelligent and capable I am of anything if I continue to believe in myself. Even if I can’t pick a path to choose becauze I am enjoying finally being able to understand so much I dreamed to be able to learn in school, at jobs, in my life!
Not having to be bullied, treated differently, created by trauma, etc to have to push myself to levels my mind felt was more important because of the way I was felt, I needed to fill a void made by others because of similar taught beleifs🥺😟😣
We shouldn’t be pushed to these levels, to finally feel acknowledged, accepted, heard, seen, or even just a spec of hope you can make someone proud and love you for you. You will be remembered for who you are!
Not for having to push that extra stress your body and mind fight so hard for. Causing shortenedlives, extra pain, broken dreams,etc
Due to some impacts people go through. The ways school taught over the years, so much knowledge and creative thinking ideas were pushed to the shadows.
Im proud to be one to say im proud of myself and the strength i pushed myself to. Lost that part of that hard work i did..
But I wont give up, Ai will help me get their withouthaving to work to near death,mental health, impacting conditions etc to do so now.
Understanding me to help my way of thinking become clearer 🫶🏻🌻✨️

I don’t get this TedTalk. She starts off saying it is the struggle to recall the memory which strengthens you brain function. Then she says AI can help you out when you have to recall. When you write something down you forget it, this is why AI is bad. Force your brain to grow and remember
@DanielVagg
January 29, 2026 at 5:07 pm
Respectfully, it sounds like you missed or skipped a key part of the talk.
I don’t usually like watching Ted talks but this one seems relatively pragmatic in the approach to using tech in schools.
@WindSouI
January 29, 2026 at 1:19 pm
To be good it needs built on educating a certain level. Right now is only limited by the will of its sponsors, which is inherently fascist because it imposes someone’s morality. We need to impose a commonly agreed morality, not receive the will of a backstage rope puller.
Humanity finds new ways to rediscover fascism, no matter how hard we try to move forward.
@niccolom
January 29, 2026 at 3:57 pm
Easy.
Are calculators good or bad for education?
Are computers good or bad for education?
The AI saves children the time to do mundane work, so that they can learn more advanced stuff.
That’s how societies advance.
@DanielVagg
January 29, 2026 at 5:31 pm
This is exactly my thinking, I don’t understand why it’s not obvious to more people.
Granted, there is an adjustment period and there are different risks, but this seems to be the next step in an obvious pattern to our learning and advancement as a species.
@niccolom
January 29, 2026 at 6:30 pm
@DanielVagg I am old enough to remember the resistance to “accept” computers into schools.
The pushback was huge.
Parents were worried that their kids would forget how to calculate things by hand.
In the end, nobody calculate anything by hand anymore, including the parents themselves.
@DanielVagg

Appreciate her effort, but classic chatgpt is much better for learning (for me). Forget about leaening, just understand metacognitinal thinking and system thinking and everything becames irrelevant actually – I’m 20 yo
@DanielVagg
January 29, 2026 at 5:14 pm
As an adult, you’re already a product of the system, and success story if you’re considering metacognition as a concept.
I think this is more geared towards scaffolding and building foundational learning skills for younger people. Building those initial systems of thinking is what she is taking about. Instead of a general one-size-fits-all, learning pace and complexity can be fit for the learner.

The problem with her quite lovely conclusion is that many students, at least here in the United States, are not interested in learning for the most part. They are interested in getting to a job that makes them as much money as possible as quickly as possible. When you live in a hyper capitalist society, that is, what’s going to happen.

Well, people got to make money. If you don’t make money, you are “useless” for the cursed system. Humans can’t live their life. They need to be “productive”.
Can’t blame those who are creating businesses. Atleast they realize that under capitalism that is the way you survive (the word used here still shows us how much we have to worry about our life despite modern conveniences).
It is impossible to have capitalism and not have business. Those making money are not evil, they are just knowing of how to deal with it. The system inherently incentivizes money. What alternative do they have?
@TogetherLearning
January 31, 2026 at 5:45 am

All true, but still I feel that the message is missing a core point though: Learning shouldn’t be a struggle! Teachers and scholars always seem to miss the fact that MOTIVATION is the key driver for learning. If you aren’t motivated to learn, no matter how much you grind on the subject, you’ll never learn it. If you are properly motivated, you will learn at first glance. This is why most people tend to remember life and death moments “in slow motion” and very high detail for the rest of their lives with no effort. Being good at managing your own motivation is the key to effective learning.
