Schools in China are using AI headbands to monitor their students’ focus

All the students need to do is put on an AI headband that uses facial recognition technology to automatically analyse a student’s data, and personally tailor their learning to them. With a focus on improving academic outcomes, AI in China is creating a new landscape where students’ learning experiences are enhanced and monitored in unprecedented ways. How is China implementing AI in its classrooms? This kind of technology equips teachers with the ability to closely monitor students, ensuring active involvement. Despite how worrying China’s AI headbands are, we’ve seen a rise in AI systems like chatbot assistants become more and more commonplace in the West too.
