Why is AI education important? – Parents’ opinions
A recent Logiscool survey shows that Hungarian and Romanian parents recognize the benefits of artificial intelligence, but many feel uncertain about how to support their children in using it. On a scale of 1 to 4, Hungarian parents rated their AI knowledge at 2.4, and Romanian parents at 2.6 – significantly lower than their general digital skills. Parents mainly value AI in supporting learning (such as spelling, language learning, or expanding knowledge), while they are more skeptical about creative uses. Their biggest concern is that AI could weaken children’s critical thinking and independent problem-solving. Although most families already talk about AI at home, real support requires schools and educational programs to step in.
