State Leads AI Lessons For Students
State leaders held a presentation Thursday morning at Dillard Drive Middle School, one of nine sessions planned for about 2,000 middle school students across Wake and Durham counties. The session, led by the North Carolina Department of Information Technology, explained how to use AI safely and age-appropriately and warned against uploading photos or personal data. Wake County encourages AI use but currently limits guidance, endorsing Google's Gemini over ChatGPT due to a student data agreement.
