In some ways, the advent of Artificial Intelligence clarifies our place in the educational equation. Let the machines do what’s mechanical—generating practice problems, flagging errors, grading the responses that are beyond discussion. That only clarifies our real responsibilities: drawing out the quiet student, asking the question nobody thought to ask, forging a community of mind and friendship from the struggles of a classroom.
