Chatbot 'Ed' will tell LA parents how their kids are doing in school
An interactive, multilingual chatbot named "Ed" will tell parents about their child's grades, test results and attendance" and serve as a student advisor, reports Howard Blume in the Los Angeles Times.
Los Angeles Unified Superintendent Alberto Carvalho announced Ed as part of a back-to-school extravaganza at Walt Disney Concert Hall, writes Blume.
Artificial intelligence and district data will help create an Individual Acceleration Plan for each student, said Carvalho.
