With the continuous development of artificial intelligence, more and more professional positions are at risk of being replaced by automation and intelligence. Teaching, as a traditional profession, is also believed by many to be replaced by AI in the future. Although the roles and responsibilities of teachers are very complex, we can predict that teachers will be the first to be hit by the replacement of AI by looking at the following aspects.

One, the dissemination of learning content will be changed

The traditional way of teaching is face-to-face by the teacher, guiding students to learn and explore knowledge step by step. And with the development of artificial intelligence technology, many well-known universities have already developed a web-based online course platform using artificial intelligence technology. This course platform allows students to learn more independently, and based on the data collected by the system can provide students with more accurate and efficient learning strategies.

At the same time, there are also many organizations and companies that have developed consumer-oriented learning products using AI technology. For example, intelligent tutoring robots using voice recognition technology, intelligent question banks based on big data and deep learning models, and so on. All of these technologies can provide students with a smarter learning experience, reduce dependence on teachers, and enable students to master and apply what they have learned more quickly.

Second, the personalized implementation of teaching content will be completed by artificial intelligence

In traditional teaching, teachers need to face different students, so they need to personalize the teaching according to each student's characteristics and learning habits, in practice, this kind of teaching is very cumbersome and complex. And using artificial intelligence technology, personalized teaching system can be easily constructed. For example, PLE (Personalized Learning Environment) and PMI (Individual Intelligence Model) can be used to quickly identify the characteristics and learning habits of students and conduct real-time knowledge assessment and follow-up in the background to meet the personalized learning needs of each student.

Third, the emergence of AI-assisted teaching makes the role of teachers more dependent on technological tools

In the traditional teaching process, teachers need to spend a lot of time preparing lesson plans, coming up with questions, assigning homework, and correcting homework. However, with the rapid development of artificial intelligence, more and more teaching aids are emerging. For example, homework correction tools, courseware creation tools, knowledge mapping and so on. These tools allow teachers to complete their teaching work more efficiently and make teaching more scientific and standardized.

Of course, these three points are only the main factors that are expected to impact the teaching profession, but they do not mean that the role of teachers will be completely replaced. Teachers' roles and responsibilities are complex and multifaceted, and in many ways they will achieve more prominent roles and advantages than AI. For example, teachers can develop students' creative thinking skills, judgment, leadership, and collaboration in the teaching process. For AI, the imparting of such abilities may not be accomplished through robots and software.

Nevertheless, we still believe that teachers will be the first to feel the change as AI rapidly evolves. So we also hope that the education system of the future will take full advantage of AI technology to create smarter, more efficient and personalized learning environments that provide better opportunities and resources for students and teachers.
