The Intertwined Histories of Artificial Intelligence and Education

Abstract: In this paper, I argue that the fields of artificial intelligence (AI) and education have been deeply intertwined since the early days of AI. Specifically, I show that many of the early pioneers of AI were cognitive scientists who also made pioneering and impactful contributions to the field of education. These researchers saw AI as a tool for thinking about human learning and used their understanding of how people learn to further AI. Furthermore, I trace two distinct approaches to thinking about cognition an… Show more

“…Another way we could define artificial intelligence is as computational models of human cognition. This is not how AI has traditionally been defined, however, it does reflect the goals of many early AI researchers who were also cognitive scientists (Doroudi, 2022). There are two different forms of computational models on human cognition: 1) ones that can actually emulate aspects of human cognition (e.g., a model that actually learns) and 2) ones that merely simulate aspects of human cognition (e.g., a model that simulates a learning process).…”

“…This systematic review explores the historical developments of AI integration for technical literacy, tracing its evolution, and highlighting key advancements and challenges (Adekanmbi, et. al., 2024, Doroudi, 2023. The early history of AI in education can be traced back to the 1960s and 1970s when researchers began exploring the potential of computers to enhance learning.…”

“…Artificial intelligence relies on computer systems to execute tasks and activities that functionally and traditionally rely on human cognition, especially in terms of learning and problem-solving [19,20]. AI comprises a wide range of technologies, including algorithms, machine learning, and neural networks [21,22].…”
