He said that with the use of AI the role of teachers can be enhanced as it can assist in things done by a teacher in classrooms, reducing the burden on teachers so that the output can be increased in terms of learning output for the students.

Sood said that the Delhi government is working on all such subjects, and in collaboration with think tanks like the Center for Policy Research and Governance, for the betterment of the children of the national capital.
