A New York City school board panel is weighing a proposal to prohibit artificial‑intelligence tools for students in elementary and middle schools, sparking debate among parents, educators, and tech advocates. Proponents argue that AI could expose young learners to privacy risks, misinformation, and a widening achievement gap, while critics say the ban would stifle creativity and leave students behind in a tech‑driven world. The discussion reflects broader national concerns about how to responsibly integrate AI into classrooms, balancing innovation with safety and equity.
