AI EDUCATION
David Game College in London is set to launch the UK's first classroom entirely led by artificial intelligence, without human teachers.
This new course, starting with 20 GCSE students in September, is a pioneering step in education.
Students will use AI platforms and virtual reality headsets for their studies.
The AI will tailor lessons to each student’s strengths and weaknesses, ensuring a personalised learning experience.
Here’s the summary:
AI-driven classrooms will create customised lesson plans for each student.
Learning coaches will support students and handle non-AI subjects.
The initiative has sparked debate about AI's role in education.
Teacherless classes
Three "learning coaches" will be on hand to monitor behaviour, offer support, and teach subjects that AI currently struggles with, such as art and sex education.
While some critics worry AI might dehumanise learning and reduce interpersonal skills, supporters believe it brings unmatched precision and potential for educational transformation.
Though concerns exist, many see AI-led learning as a necessary step forward in modern education.

GROW ON LINKEDIN
Our CEO Adam now has over 100,000 followers on LinkedIn, and recently we saw another big success - one of our videos went viral, with over 400,000 views in just a week. None of this would be possible without Taplio.
Here’s how we did it:
Used Taplio to come up with content ideas based on high-performing posts across LinkedIn.
Picked an idea, ran with it and used Tapio’s smart AI to tweak it to perfection.
Scheduled it at the optimal performing time with Taplio’s advanced scheduling tool.
Sat back and watched as we went viral!
Taplio really does make it that easy, which is how we’ve been able to grow so quickly on LinkedIn!

Weird AI
The future of dentistry
A robot has completed a fully automated dental procedure on a human. Created by the US company Perceptive, this tech uses a robotic arm, AI, and 3D imaging to do tasks like fillings and crowns faster and more accurately. Supported by Edward Zuckerberg, the father of Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg, the company has raised $30 million.
They say in the future, crowns could be done in just 15 minutes, instead of the usual two dentist visits. New dentist fear unlocked?
AI SCIENCE
As AI becomes more ingrained in business operations, companies are turning to "emotion AI."
This technology helps AI systems better understand human emotions, which is essential as AI is increasingly used for customer service and sales.
What is Emotion AI?
Emotion AI goes beyond traditional sentiment analysis, which only interprets emotion from text.
It uses sensors, machine learning, and psychology to detect emotions through visual and audio cues.
Major players like Microsoft and Amazon offer emotional AI services, although the technology has faced some scrutiny.
In a nutshell:
Enhances AI’s ability to understand human emotions using different types of input.
Concerns about accuracy and potential regulatory issues.
Could shape AI’s role in the workplace, though its effectiveness is still debated.
Hits it in the feels
With AI assistants becoming more common in workplaces, there’s a growing demand for more human-like interactions.
Startups like Uniphore and MorphCast are leading this trend, backed by significant venture capital.
However, there are challenges.
Researchers have questioned the accuracy of emotion detection, especially when based on facial expressions.
New regulations, like the European Union's AI Act, may also limit the use of Emotion AI.
This development in AI could improve human-machine interactions or struggle with the complexities of human emotion.
Okay, but can it give us a hug?
