UAE Rolls Out AI for Schoolkids (financialpost.com) 13

From a report: The subject will be rolled out in the 2025-2026 academic year for kindergarten pupils through to 12th grade, state-run news agency WAM reported on Sunday. The course includes ethical awareness as well as foundational concepts and real-world applications, it said. The UAE joins a growing group of countries integrating AI into school education. Beijing announced a similar move to roll out AI courses to primary and secondary students in China last month.

You could be against Islam because it abuses children and supports lies and violence, for example. That's perfectly reasonable.

I'm surprised that AI is considered halal. Isn't it basically a form of "playing G-d"?

Given what UAE teach to their children, AI should be the least of their concerns.

Now that students are just giving AI generated answers, we might as well just give them ai generated lessons.
Great. Just what we need. (Score:1)
The following is already going to be a HUGE problem in the future, so let's make it worse with AI, unless the goal is to simply replace humans with AI:
