Machine bots work by learning from large sets of data. They look for patterns in the data and use those patterns to answer questions or solve problems. If the data they learn from has bias, the bot may also show that bias in its answers. This can lead to unfair or incorrect results, even if the bot is not trying to be unfair.

Tools can help teachers by acting like a tutor or assistant. It can give students feedback, ask questions, and support learning. I think AI can be helpful in the classroom if teachers check its answers and guide how it is used. It should support teaching, not replace the teacher.
