Germany prepares its schools for the age of artificial intelligence

The Bavarian State Ministry for Education and Cultural Affairs is launching the "AI@school" pilot project. Over the next five years, 15 schools are to experiment specifically with artificial intelligence in education. Andrei Karpathy, AI expert and longtime AI chief at Tesla, refers to artificial intelligence as "Software 2.0." A new generation of computer technology massively expands the capabilities of computers and thus the technological possibilities of humans. "Software (1.0) is eating the world, and now AI (Software 2.0) is eating software," Karpathy wrote in 2017.
