Today, the SBS Audio podcast series “Un Futuro Artificial” released an engaging episode on the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) in education and language learning (interview and link in Spanish). We were especially delighted to hear insights from Dr Marian Vidal-Fernández, Associate Professor in the School of Economics at the University of Sydney and expert in the economics of education.
In Season 1, Episode 6, titled “Un Futuro Artificial: educación y aprendizaje de lenguas” (Artificial Future: Education and Language Learning), the podcast examines how AI-powered tools are reshaping how we teach, learn, and communicate across languages. The episode highlights the exciting possibilities for AI to support learners in acquiring new languages and developing skills across educational levels, from schools to universities.
If you’re curious about the evolving role of AI in education, especially in how we learn and teach languages, this episode is well worth a listen.
