Read the passage and answer. The arrival of artificial intelligence in classrooms has been greeted with both excitement and alarm. Supporters claim that AI tutors can give every student personal attention, something no teacher with sixty pupils can manage. Critics fear that students will stop thinking for themselves and simply copy machine-made answers. The truth probably lies in between: like the calculator before it, AI will be harmful only if it replaces learning rather than supporting it. The real task for teachers is to design assignments that a machine cannot complete on a student's behalf. The author compares AI to the calculator in order to show that:

1. machines cannot teach
2. AI is older than calculators
3. a tool is harmful only if it replaces learning
4. calculators are dangerous
