Say Hello to Tomorrow\u2019s Learning <\/span><\/h2>\n

\u201cAI will be the most beneficial and transformative technology humanity has ever invented \u2013 10 times the impact of the Industrial Revolution, in one-tenth the time.\u201d<\/span><\/em><\/strong>\u2013 Demis Hassabis, CEO of Google DeepMind, 23rd July 2025<\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s quite a statement. And when it comes from someone like Demis Hassabis \u2013 one of the most influential scientific thinkers of our time \u2013 it\u2019s worth paying attention.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"AI<\/p>\n

I think that we are standing at the beginning of something enormous, and it\u2019s moving faster than most of us can grasp. I consider myself to be so, so lucky to be alive at this time and to be part of it.<\/span><\/p>\n

A Personal Reason to Care<\/span><\/h2>\n

I didn\u2019t have a particularly strong academic start in life. I left school at 15. University wasn\u2019t even discussed in our house. My parents didn\u2019t place much value on education even though I know they loved me dearly.\u00a0 The truth is, things were very different 50 years ago.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"<\/p>\n

Now, with the benefit of time and perspective, I sometimes reflect on what I missed.\u00a0 Not just the qualifications, but the mindset: the confidence that comes from understanding things more deeply, and the curiosity that can be ignited by good parents and teachers.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s one of the reasons I started Education Quizzes. I wanted to create something simple, engaging, and helpful \u2013 something that could support children in building that confidence and curiosity. And now, with the rise of AI, I believe the potential to do this has never been greater.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Power of a One-to-One Tutor<\/span><\/h2>\n

Until recently, personal tutoring was something only a few could afford. Now, thanks to artificial intelligence, that\u2019s changing \u2013 quickly.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

In the very near future, I believe it will be normal for every child to have a personal, online tutor, tailored to their pace, their questions, and their learning style. It\u2019s a revolution in education that\u2019s unfolding right before our eyes.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"<\/span><\/p>\n

But alongside all the excitement, it\u2019s worth pausing to think about safety. As AI tools become more common in children\u2019s lives, it\u2019s natural for parents to wonder: Who\u2019s guiding this? What\u2019s off-limits? And is my child being shown content that\u2019s truly appropriate?<\/em><\/p>\n

Most AI tools are not designed with children in mind. That\u2019s why it\u2019s so important that any educational AI your child uses is clearly focused, age-appropriate, and well-structured \u2013 with sensible limits in place. No open-ended internet access. No drifting into strange or confusing territory. Just calm, purposeful support \u2013 with boundaries.<\/p>\n

AI can be a brilliant tutor. But like any good tutor, it needs to know when to stop talking, when to stay on topic, and when to hand things back to a trusted adult.<\/p>\n

\"<\/p>\n

Where I Can Help<\/span><\/h2>\n

All my work is focused on education (and increasingly on how AI is transforming it) so that puts me in a good place to point out the things that busy parents need to know. I\u2019ll do the research so you don\u2019t have to, and I\u2019ll:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Highlight the most exciting and useful developments in AI, especially those relevant to parents and families<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Cut through the jargon with clear, plain-English explanations<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Explore both the opportunities and the risks of AI, drawing on insights from leading thinkers around the world<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Focus on what\u2019s happening now \u2013 not just predictions about the distant future<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    One Last Thought<\/span><\/h2>\n

    I won\u2019t try to predict everything AI might become \u2013 frankly, I don\u2019t think that anyone can, but I\u2019m an optimist. I believe that, used wisely, AI will bring much more good than harm. Like Denis Hassabis, I\u2019m really excited about the years ahead and I would love it if you can join me on the journey! <\/span><\/p>\n
