Beijing Mandates AI Education in Schools
Beijing will make AI education mandatory in all schools starting this fall, requiring at least eight hours of AI instruction per year. Elementary students will get hands-on experience with the basic AI concepts, while older students will focus on practical applications and AI ethics. The curriculum aims to create a teacher-student-machine learning model, preparing students for an AI-driven future. (Business Insider). This move aligns with China’s broader strategy to lead in AI development, as the country has already invested heavily in AI research and education reforms. With AI playing a growing role in industries worldwide, Beijing’s approach highlights the urgency of AI literacy in modern education systems.

TikTok has expanded its Family Pairing feature, allowing parents to set screen time limits, block access during certain hours, and monitor their child's followers.
