I largely agree with this overall. But a core part you're overlooking is student motivation, curiosity, and intrinsic interest. Yes, AI can do (or will shortly be able to do) the unique and powerful pedagogies you describe, but only if students WANT to do it. And what has shocked me the past few years is how few students fully employ the power of this tech to learn. It's almost a paradox of our times, the combination of groundbreaking learning tools and a corresponding collapse in time spent studying, reading, revising, seeking, etc. And, in fact, it might very well be that this collapse in student drive is correlated with the accent of this tech. Information and knowledge is cheap and easy to access, so why try? So I think a more fundamental challenge, then, for teachers is how to reinvigorate interest, passion, motivation. AI cannot do this, but the jury is out on whether teachers can either in the face of this wave of tech that makes the path of least resistance so tempting.
