Everyone thought AI in education would make students lazy, but this Nigerian school used it to create one of the most successful education programs Researchers took a group of students at a high school and set up an after-school program, where half the students got to use AI as a virtual tutor, while the other half didn't. And the results? Students who used AI learned as much as others typically do in two years, all in just six weeks of after-school sessions. They weren't just copying answers, they learned to use AI as a real learning tool, focusing on English, but improving across all subjects. And most interestingly, girls who were falling behind actually caught up faster. Now this was just an experiment, but think of implications of AI in India. With over 250 million students and a shortage of about 1 million teachers, this could be a game-changer. Whether it's a student in rural Bihar or a classroom in Mumbai, AI tutoring could help bridge the massive teacher gap
