Unknown FIELDS New Series! In the AI Era, Are 'Teachers' Still Necessary?

(Full text translated) 'Unknown,' a digital platform managed by ap bank that shares 'unknowns,' is launching a new series titled 'Will AI Make Teachers Obsolete?' as part of its 'Unknown FIELDS' series, which discusses societal questions with the younger generation. Hosted by comedian Kemuri Matsui of Reiwa Roman and freelance announcer Anna Nakagawa, the 5-part series explores education, learning, and the human role in the AI era alongside 12 high school students. Streaming begins on May 30 (Sat) at 19:00 on the official 'Unknown' YouTube channel. Years after the emergence of AI like ChatGPT, AI can now 'teach' and 'provide answers.' So, are human teachers no longer needed? What is the meaning of going to school? What about the presence of someone standing in front of a blackboard? What is evaluation? What about learning with friends? This series does not aim to reach a conclusion. It listens to the 'unknowns' of the high school generation and seeks to find questions from there.
