Quietly, AI has become ubiquitous in numerous aspects of our daily lives--we still are a long way from mind-blowing inventions such as androids. That being the case, in particular, AI is beginning to alter education tools and institutions and changing what the future for education. Some of the much-discussed ideas of this AI infi ltration into the education space are the prospects of differentiated and individualized learning and universal access for all students. While the latter has been of much importance to educators for years now, accomplishing the same has not been very easy. However, with AI coming onto the scene, it will allow a level of differentiation that's impossible for teachers who have to manage 30 students in each class. Companies are already in the process of developing intelligent instruction design and digital platforms that use AI to provide learning, testing, and feedback to students, giving them the challenges they are ready for. As said earlier, the idea of customizing curriculums for every student's needs is not viable today, but with AI-powered machines, it is a possibility of tomorrow.The second benefi t of this collaboration is driven by the idea that AI possesses the capability to break down silos between schools and between traditional grade levels. In effect, global classrooms should be available to all, including those who speak different languages or who might have visual or hearing impairments.There are many more AI applications for education that are being developed. The education space might be a bit slower to the adoption of artifi cial intelligence and machine learning, but the changes are beginning and will only continue.As the build-up continues, we at Education Technology Insights magazine have come up with this edition of, "Top 10 Artifi cial Intelligence Solution Providers ­ 2018". The edition is an attempt at shedding light on some of the most innovative and promising AI Solution providers and developments in this new space.Let us know your thoughts!Maybe not Androids, but Better EducationTina RosenEditor-in-Chieftina@educationtechnologyinsights.comMailing AddressValleyMedia, Inc.44790 S.
