    Artificial intelligence is making remarkable progress and impacting many future professions, including education. Some researchers believe that robots could potentially substitute for teachers in the future. While robots like Jill Watson have already taken on teaching assistant roles by quickly and consistently answering student questions online, professors note that current robots have limitations. Robots are only able to perform predetermined tasks and lack the ability to adapt to new, unforeseen situations or provide the type of empathy, guidance, and appreciation of creative thinking that human teachers offer. It remains uncertain whether robots could fully replace teachers.

    ESEU LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE ENGLISH

                 THEME: IF TEACHERS WOULD BE ROBOTS

    Artificial intelligence knows remarkable progress from year to year, having a major
    impact on future professions, including in the field of education. Could they be potential
    substitute robots for teachers? Some researchers would answer this question in the
    affirmative.

    The controversial topic was debated last month at the international conference on
    technology-based education OEB, organized annually in Berlin. Technology experts
    believe that it would be wrong to believe that positions in education systems could never
    be automated, since there are already enough creative robots to make complex
    combinations of concepts or coherent assessments of a class of students.

    Digital teacher, already a reality

    In the summer of just ended, Georgia Tech, along with, University of Atlanta, USA,
    introduced a faculty assistant named Jill Watson to one of the college's postgraduate
    courses.

    Jill is actually a robot meant to help students improve their academic performance by
    answering questions on an online forum without revealing their true nature. The only
    thing students noticed at Jill was the speed with which he provided feedback, compared
    to the other university assistants. The robot has always been available with an answer,
    never looking distracted, tired or bored.

    But Jill's performance can hide many vulnerabilities, say American University
    professors. While these machines can be programmed to perform certain fixed tasks
    and provide information to predetermined sets of questions, they are unable to adapt
    their database to other unforeseen situations.

    For example, a man who plays chess very well will also be proficient at the board game,
    while a robot programmed to play chess will never be able to make a rational move in a
    similar game unless previously programmed. In this regard.

    There are many other questions related to the possible didactic activity of a robot.
    Would students feel the same feedback from a machine and a human being? Could a
    robot be empathetic, research, negotiate and guide? Could he be able to appreciate a
    creative response that deviates from a fixed set of information? Not yet. But who knows
    what will be over the next few decades, say Georgia Tech's automation specialists.
