Who teaches whom?

Correio da Manhã7 September 2026 at 00:30

The article raises questions about the role of artificial intelligence in education and the human learning process. The title "Who teaches whom?" suggests an inversion of the traditional relationship between teacher and student, questioning whether the machine now teaches the human.

The central question of the article is whether the immediate responses provided by AI may compromise the human capacity to question and doubt. The premise raised is that the ease of obtaining information instantly may affect critical thinking.

The text appears to explore the tension between convenience and depth in learning, suggesting that dependence on quick answers can weaken the ability to question and investigate on one's own.
