Estonian minister calls for global AI policy for education

TOKYO - Estonian Education and Research Minister Kristina Kallas called for Japan and other countries willing to take the lead in working with artificial intelligence in education to form a coalition to establish a global policy on what kind of AI is needed in classrooms.

Saying that the European Union's existing regulations are insufficient on their own, Kallas emphasized in an interview with Kyodo News in Tokyo on Tuesday that countries need to "come together" and "globally regulate" AI on aspects including privacy issues, bias, and other forms of harm it can do to humans.
