DIRECTIONS: Read the article and understand.

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is making a positive impact on education in the United States,
according to a recent survey conducted by Instructure, an education technology company. The
survey, which included over 1,000 participants, including students of all ages and educational staff,
revealed that 54% of respondents have a positive view of AI in education, while about 30% are
neutral. Generative AI, which can create new content such as text, images, and music by learning
from existing data, is perceived as a tool that helps complete tasks efficiently, aids in generating
answers, and reduces errors.

Although 57% of respondents have not yet used AI for schoolwork, approximately 30% plan to try it
during the current school year, with some already having experience using AI outside of school.
According to Ryan Lufkin from Instructure, the survey results indicate that educators and students
are beginning to recognize the benefits of generative AI in the classroom, emphasizing its potential to
enhance the teaching and learning process.

However, concerns regarding the proper use of AI persist. More than three-quarters of teachers
worry that AI might be used for cheating, and 43% of students share this concern. Despite these
concerns, some educators hope that AI can be employed to detect and prevent cheating.
Additionally, teachers and administrators are optimistic about AI's potential to create multilingual
content and materials tailored to the diverse educational needs of students.
