Extract from Forbes article: "Artificial Intelligence In Education: Don't Ignore It, Harness It!":
 “Human plus machine isn’t the future, it’s the present,” Garry Kasparov said in a recent TED talk. And this “present” is transforming the world of education at a rapid pace.
(...) now virtual reality (VR) and artificial intelligence (AI) are gaining traction. (...) Indeed, high costs remain a challenge but the day is not far when AI and VR tools will be as accessible as smartphones and desktop computers.
(...) Moreover, learning is now turning into a truly immersive experience (...) I’ve often heard experts say “technology makes bad teachers worse.” So there is no doubt that we need to continue investing in their training and professional development (...) <A HREF="https://www.forbes.com/sites/sebastienturbot/2017/08/22/artificial-intelligence-virtual-reality-education/#40a307596c16" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Read more</A>
