À propos de cet audio
In this episode, we tackle a bold—and frankly controversial—claim from Duolingo CEO Luis von Ahn, who recently suggested that most teachers could be replaced by AI, reducing their role to little more than “childcare.”
As an educator, advocate, and believer in the power of human connection, I’m calling BS.
Join me as we unpack:
Why teaching is so much more than content delivery
The dangerous misconception of equating education with babysitting
What AI can (and can’t) do in the classroom
Why human relationships are essential to learning
And how undermining teachers ultimately hurts students the most
This conversation isn’t anti-tech—it’s pro-human. If you care about the future of education, this episode will challenge your thinking and reaffirm the irreplaceable value of teachers.
