25% of 8 year olds are already using generative AI in school. But what does that actually look like in the classroom?

What are teachers and students using AI for? And where should parents, teachers, and policymakers focus their attention?

In this episode, Mark and Jeremy dig into one of the largest studies to date on kids and AI: a two-part project from the Alan Turing Institute, informed by a national survey and an unusually in-depth workshop with 9 to 11-year-olds in the UK. The results pull back the curtain not just on how children are using ChatGPT and Snapchat’s AI, but also on how they feel about it: curious, creative, sometimes cautious, and surprisingly attuned to questions of bias and environmental impact.
