    But the article doesn’t really make it clear how much AI is involved in the textbooks, just that “Digital textbooks that make use of artificial intelligence are being adopted throughout South Korea.”, emphasis mine.

    Other text from the article, relevant to your question:

    South Korea, the 2025 APEC chair, held the group’s first education ministers’ meeting in nine years, the theme of which was innovation in digital education. Education ministers from 21 countries and regions participated.
    […]
    Private companies and government-affiliated organizations set up booths at the APEC venue to promote their efforts. They exhibited software in which generative AI writes student evaluations on behalf of teachers or assigns homework and applied problems tailored to each child’s level of understanding.

    The road to implementation was not a smooth one.

    The government’s original goal was the world’s first rollout of AI digital textbooks to all schools nationwide. But teachers worried about the burden that making full use of the technology would place on them, while parents questioned whether the textbooks would actually improve student performance and whether they could lead to digital dependency.

    After heated debate, lawmakers made last-minute changes, including requiring continued use of paper textbooks for subjects such as Korean and home economics and delaying implementation for other subjects. The government also made plans to provide advanced training to more than 160,000 teachers as well as dispatch 1,200 digital tutors as support staff.

    He’s already talked about “work camps” for people who are “addicted” to things like SSRIs.

    Disgrace to humanity is absolutely right, and somehow still now adequate for the piece of shit he is.

    That being said, I can’t find a source for him talking about “work camps” for people who are “addicted” to things like SSRIs. The only thing related to SSRIs and him turning up for me is how he thinks it overprescribed. Could you provide a source that I could read up on and educate myself on?
