Here’s what a generative AI has to say about that issue: No, AI-driven education wont “replace” STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) as a field of study or practice, but it will transform how STEM is taught and applied. AI can enhance that, not supplant it. AI can enhance that, not supplant it.

Math professor Martin Weissman is rethinking how his university teaches calculus. Called Math 11 A and B, these classes, which students take as freshmen and sophomores, constitute a “leaky pipeline,” Weissman says. And despite some “uneven” progress in recent years, STEM fields are just not as diverse as industry leaders would like.
