AI Dumbs Down, Teachers Level Up: Hope for the AI-Enhanced Teaching Era

Hawkinson, E.

Abstract

Studies in both text and image generation confirm that AI struggles to maintain originality when removed from human input, raising concerns about the long-term sustainability of generative content. At the same time, these limitations reveal the enduring value of human educators. Rather than being replaced, educators are becoming more essential as designers of meaningful learning experiences and mentors who guide students through increasingly complex digital landscapes.
