Bruno Retailleau: No direct exposure of students to AI before high school
Proposal put forward by Bruno Retailleau on August 31, 2026. Topic: AI in Schools. The observatory also publishes quotes from 12 other public figures on this topic.
Time spent in front of screens will be limited, and our students will have no direct exposure to artificial intelligence before high school, so that nothing competes, in the early years, with the acquisition of fundamental knowledge.
Original quote (French)
Le temps passé devant les écrans sera limité, et nos élèves n’auront aucune exposition directe à l’intelligence artificielle avant le lycée, pour que rien ne vienne concurrencer, dans les jeunes années, l’acquisition des savoirs fondamentaux.Source: avecretailleau.fr · archived copy
