Artificial Intelligence (AI) is technology that allows computers and machines to think, learn, and solve problems like humans. AI helps power tools that recognize speech, understand images, analyze information, and even create new content.
AI is already part of everyday life, from voice assistants (Alexa, Siri) to recommendation systems (Netflix, YouTube). One type of AI, called Generative AI (ChatGPT, Gemini), can produce text, images, music, and more. These tools are transforming education by enabling personalized and interactive learning experiences.
While AI can be a powerful tool, it’s important to use it wisely—double-checking facts, identifying bias, thinking critically, and using it to support learning rather than replace it. EHS is committed to the safe, ethical, and responsible use of AI.
