Microsoft decided to impose limits on artificial intelligence in schools in the United States, responding to growing criticism about the impact of this technology on education. This decision comes at a time when the use of AI tools in American classrooms has been the subject of intense debate.
OpenAI and Anthropic announced that they are negotiating security and privacy agreements with the largest teachers' union in the US. These negotiations aim to establish specific guarantees for the protection of students' and teachers' data.
Google, which is described as a leader in educational technology in American schools, did not comment on whether it intends to offer protections similar to those Microsoft is implementing. This absence of comment contrasts with the movements of other companies in the sector.
The article does not specify exactly what limits Microsoft is imposing or what the concrete terms of the negotiations between AI companies and the teachers' union are.
