2024 Schedule Deep Dive: Artificial Intelligence

Since its inception, SXSW EDU has consistently prioritized the celebration of cutting-edge technologies and their potential to advance learning. This year, artificial intelligence emerged as a persistent theme across programming, no matter the track.

According to a study conducted by the Pew Research Center, in the last year, artificial intelligence (AI) has become a common tool in the workplace for 23% of working Americans. As AI continues to gain traction in various industries, many educators are curious about its role in the classroom and the workforce.

Dive into sessions that tackle the advantages and disadvantages of employing AI in education from the perspectives of educators, consumers, technologists, and students.
