I agree. The teacher's enthusiasm with their teaching is evident to the students. When they love what they teach, they usually make it interesting enough for the students, and the students learn and are more engaged. But when they are just going through the motions, students are usually passive as well. I see a future where AI are the ones teaching in the future. I am curious if they can program it to be enthusiastic and personalized per class.

Interesting! They can certainly learn the skills to do it at some point.
The question is if we want our future generations to be taught and modeled by AIs or not. That would be a very sensitive topic.
I think as long as they are not self aware AI, it should be fine. The curriculum can be checked by humans, and we can use actual human teachers as the data where the AI will learn from.
Yeah, but they will still run into situations they haven't been taught about. Do we trust their judgment to make the best decision for the children or not? Do they just freeze and wait for a human teacher to take over? That would be awkward. Imagine children trying to push the limits of the AIs and mocking them when they don't know what to do.
I was thinking of still having a human teacher in the room at all times. In case the AI malfunctions, or to handle some of the things you mentioned above.
That's a bit redundant if we have both.
Not really. If the AI are customized to each student, and the students can be learning different subjects, then it wouldn't be redundant. I also see this as an option with the declining birthrates. I have seen some videos where there were only 8 students in a rural school in japan, and they had different teachers, and different classrooms.
Hmmm... Why would they go to school then, if they have personal teaching AIs? The point is to interact with the teacher and with each other, not to be all in a classroom and everyone alone (well, with the AI).
With the poor demographics and the example you gave from Japan (which I've seen too), we might have cases where such setups with teaching AIs may be useful, provided there are not enough teachers in certain areas to teach the few children who are in different stages in their learning process and interested in different subjects.
