Ukraine urges ethical use of AI in education
Deputy minister urges careful use of AI in schools, warning it must support education, not replace it.
AI can help build individual learning paths for Ukraine’s 3.5 million students, but its use must remain ethical, First Deputy Minister of Education and Science Yevhen Kudriavets has said.
Speaking to UNN, Kudriavets stressed that AI can analyse large volumes of information and help students acquire the knowledge they need more efficiently. He said AI could construct individual learning trajectories faster than teachers working manually.
He warned, however, that AI should not replace the educational process and that safeguards must be found to prevent misuse.
Kudriavets also said students in Ukraine should understand the reasons behind using AI, adding that it should be used to achieve knowledge rather than to obtain grades.
The deputy minister emphasised that technology itself is neutral, and how people choose to apply it determines whether it benefits education.
