What happened

Well supportedReported by 14 independent outlets

The City of New York announced a one-year moratorium on student-facing generative artificial intelligence for PreK-8. This ban prevents students in preschool through eighth grade from using any generative AI. High school students may use the technology in limited supervised contexts. This policy follows similar device restrictions implemented by Utah and Kansas.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The moratorium is one of the highest-profile examples of a school district policy governing AI in the classroom, occurring without statewide or federal guidance. This decision contrasts with some private institutions, such as Alpha School, which integrates AI into its curriculum. In New York State, over half of the 678 school districts lack formal AI policies.
