MathVizy is an AI-powered tool developed by Mathleaks, a company that has already supported over 2.5 million students and teachers worldwide with its digital tools. The new platform was created in collaboration with educators and researchers to enhance math education. It allows users to learn at their own pace, promoting inclusivity and effectiveness in the learning experience.

The initiative is part of a broader digitalization effort in education, led by President Prabowo Subianto. The program aims to equip students with skills that will be valuable in the present and future, including creativity and collaboration. To implement this plan, the government will focus on developing human resources, such as training teachers, while adjusting hardware to the capabilities of each educational unit.

This approach is being implemented at Unbound Academy, which features a two-hour learning model, with the remaining school day focused on teaching life skills. The program is expected to open in Arizona next fall with 250 students and has reportedly produced high academic outcomes for its students, who are based in Austin, Texas.

The team plans to train a large language model, similar to ChatGPT, to analyze videos and generate relevant responses to user queries. This technology has the potential to be used in various applications, including education and information retrieval systems.

The initiative focuses on creating localised curriculum content in Urdu and regional languages, empowering teachers with training and tools, and expanding access to students across Pakistan. KAP has partnered with several organizations, including AKHUWAT, CARE Foundation, and Aga Khan University – Institute of Education Development, to implement the program. The goal is to use artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance learning outcomes and make quality education accessible to all children in Pakistan, regardless of their circumstances.

Students can use AI to summarize passages, translate text and even write outlines, which some see as a "cheat code" in a video game. However, experts say that AI can level the playing field for students with disabilities who are struggling academically. The U.S. Department of Justice has also introduced new rules requiring schools and government entities to make apps and online content accessible to those with disabilities. Some students, such as 14-year-old Ben Snyder from New York, have been using AI tools like Question AI to help with homework. However, he believes that using AI to write a whole report is cheating. Schools are trying to balance the benefits of AI against the risk that it will do too much for students. The technology can also be used to track students into less rigorous courses of study and may be able to identify students who have disabilities, which could create ethical dilemmas. However, experts say that the biggest concern is not about people with disabilities using the tools in nefarious ways, but rather about providing them with the support they need. Schools are also using AI to help students who struggle academically, even if they do not qualify for special education services. For example, a new law in Iowa requires students deemed not proficient to get an individualized reading plan, and the state's education department has spent $3 million on an AI-driven personalized tutoring program. The U.S. National Science Foundation is funding research and development of AI tools to help children with speech and language difficulties. One firm is developing tools to help children with speech and language difficulties, including a digital avatar that intervenes when students struggle.

The Department of Justice also plans to make apps and online content more accessible to those with disabilities. However, there is concern that the use of these technologies may hinder learning skills in areas such as summarization and translation. Some educators are noticing that students with disabilities are using artificial intelligence tools to complete tasks on their own, potentially undermining their ability to develop essential skills.

He finds it particularly helpful in math and writing tasks, such as explaining complex problems and organizing ideas for book reports. Snyder uses a program called Question AI, which provides multiple explanations for math problems and helps him write outlines more efficiently.
