"For most of us in so called third world countries, self-driving cars, voice assistants, and other artificially intelligent technologies are truly out there. Yet, we ought to recall that 15 years ago, the internet wasn’t a dominant force in our lives like it is currently and as such, things that are out of the norm would be common place. AI then will be more than a tool; in fact, AI will be their co-worker and an ubiquitous part of their lives.

To prepare our learners to use AI and big data effectively –to comprehend it’s inherent limitations, and build even better platforms and intelligent systems — they need to be prepared now - FUTURE READY. It means overhauling our system; changes in our elementary schools as well as major overdue upgrades in how we teach IT in our secondary schools. "
