Listen "Will Robots Teach: Humanoids, Chatbots, and the Classroom Shift"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode Dr. J explores the growing world of embodied AI—humanoid robots—and their relationship to AI chatbots and agents, especially in education. He discusses real examples, the promise of 24/7 support for students, and how AI can free staff to focus on deeper human work.
The episode also covers risks: the importance of clean data, concerns about academic misuse, and why educators should guide rather than ban AI tools. Dr. J compares AI’s role to the calculator—shifting focus to higher-level thinking.
Finally, he examines platform power with TikTok’s ownership debates and urges listeners to reflect on whether resistance to technology is protecting them or holding them back, closing with a call to keep learning at the intersection of life and technology.
