AI Is a Game-Changer for Students with Disabilities, but Schools Are Still Learning
Artificial intelligence is breaking down barriers for students with disabilities, offering tools that promote accessibility and personalized learning. Whether it's text-to-speech apps or real-time sign language interpreters, AI is opening up new doors to inclusivity. For example, speech recognition software supports students with communication challenges, and visual aids help those who have impaired vision. However, schools do not realize the full benefits of AI because of limited resources and teacher training. Furthermore, concerns about data privacy and equal access add a level of complexity to this process. Still, the force of AI is undeniable. It will help students navigate challenges and unlock their potential, as institutions evolve to include AI as part of the educational experience.

Balancing act for Trump with China over Frontier AI Policy
Donald Trump, former President of the United States of America, has taken a tightrope between policies on frontier AI that affect China. The new high-tension AI rivalry raises tension as both compete in gaining dominance over the newest emerging technologies. By opposing the advancement of China through full-scale decoupling, Trump's policies seek to protect intellectual property while creating domestic innovation. This strategy includes encouraging U.S. firms to lead in AI with safeguards against technology transfer. Critics argue that the balancing act may undermine global cooperation on AI ethics and security. However, Trump's stance reflects the complex geopolitical realities of the AI race, where national interests intersect with the global implications of technological leadership.
