Social psychologist Jonathan Haidt has described artificial intelligence as a 'neutron bomb for education', arguing that AI tools threaten to hollow out learning by undermining how students develop skills, writing and critical thinking. The comment, made in a video interview, has been circulating in technology and AI discussion forums, drawing debate over whether AI in classrooms will enrich or erode education.
