## Resource

In this episode, Sinead takes the stage at SXSW EDU 2025 in conversation with moderator and tech entrepreneur Natalie Monbiot for a thought-provoking discussion on AI and the path forward for education. Together, they explore why simply banning AI isn’t a solution and what it really means to design learning for an AI-first world. The conversation examines how education systems must adapt, from rethinking curriculum and grading to creating environments where critical thinking, judgment, and intellectual independence remain central to learning. They unpack both the promise and the limits of AI in the classroom, emphasizing that technology should amplify human potential, not replace it. Finally, the discussion turns to the skills needed to thrive in a future shaped by emerging technologies, and why most of the capabilities that matter most aren’t technical at all Follow my work here: Website: https://www.sineadbovell.com Substack: https://sineadbovell.substack.com/ Instagram: / sineadbovell LinkedIn: / sineadbovell Twitter / X: / sineadbovell YouTube: / sineadbovell TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/sineadbovell
