The flood of artificial intelligence tools such as ChatGPT and Bard has swept into all areas of life, including education.
Schools are grappling with how to handle the use of chatbots in the classroom.

Educators in Ohio are attending training sessions to learn how to help students use artificial intelligence in a constructive way.
