As you point out, AI is already very much part of our lives but awareness of this appears to be quite low.  There appears to be a n enduring trend of AI tied to a mechanised human body of sorts. The visual illustrations we offen use when referring to AI do not help. We need to expend more effort showing how AI is very much present in our daily lives be it that chatbox that comes up when visiting a website inviting assistance,  that voice activated virtual assistant (such as Alexa) , that automated cleaning tool, that (automated) learning report summarising effort and making recommendations for future work etc.So much we do is feeding AI as well. Increasingly we are in a generative dance with it which makes it all so important for us as educators to make it our business to engage in this conversation for understanding our students' learning needs, for improving teaching and learning, for the communities we serve and belong to, and for positive wider society development.   

Artificial Intelligence definitely has great potential in supporting teachers and trainers. More support is however required to ensure that these same teachers and trainers are able to make full sense of the fast developments in this area.
