Fei-Fei Li: the real risk of AI in classrooms is students who stop wanting to learn

Fei-Fei Li, Stanford professor and AI pioneer, says the biggest threat of AI in schools is not cheating but students losing the desire to learn. She argues AI works best when a student is already motivated and needs guidance, not as a shortcut. Research supports her concern, with studies linking AI use to shallower thinking and reduced problem-solving skills over time.
