Most scholars suggest AI will not be able to completely replace human teachers. Although AI may provide tools and systems that can be used for learning in the classroom or at home, there are not currently any programs that are advanced enough to provide a complete education in any subject. Most educational technology can teach a specific set of skills or can only perform parts of a teacher's job, such as grading assignments. However, there are many tools that can be used alongside teachers to help students learn more effectively and to help teachers use their time for what is most important.
There are different ideas of what is required to be creative. Some computer scientists consider creativity to be the ability to create something that is new and different from what you have seen. In that case, some examples of AI could already be considered creative. Others simply think about AI creativity by judging whether what is made would be called "creative" if made by a human. This also might mean current AI systems can be considered creative. However, if the definition of creativity depends on the thought process used in creation, no current forms of AI would likely be considered creative.
Optimistic computer scientists (and science fiction writers) have talked about singularity, the point where AI is able to make itself or other AI programs smarter. However, even today, our AI technologies are only considered narrow or "weak" AI; that is, they are able to perform a specific task. Major advances will have to be made for artificial intelligence to be as broadly intelligent as humans.
While AI may be able to access and sort through information faster than humans, it also is not able to complete tasks perfectly. The best AI systems may have an accuracy of 80 or 90 percent, but the way AI is trained makes it impossible to completely eliminate errors.
