America leads the world in innovation. As AI continues to evolve, NetChoice is committed to educating the next generation of innovators to use AI creatively and responsibly. We are proud to support the White House’s “Pledge to America’s Youth: Investing in AI Education,” an initiative in partnership with over 100 companies to expand AI education for young Americans.
This week, we launched our Investing in AI Education campaign to inform parents, educators and policymakers about emerging tools, best practices and more. This initiative is an investment in America’s future, and we’re honored to be part of it.
As Back-to-School Month is fast underway, it places a greater emphasis on the need for parents and educators to have a solid understanding of what AI education means for their children’s futures. Artificial Intelligence is here to stay, so it is becoming crucial to ensure the next generation is equipped with the digital literacy skills necessary to excel.
According to a January 2025 McKinsey & Company report, “Over the next three years, 92 percent of companies plan to increase their AI investments.”
This alone serves as crucial evidence for why the next generation needs to learn how to comfortably work with technology while in school to be adequately prepared to enter the modern workforce.
Beyond the practical reasons for building early competency, AI in education can have meaningful impacts on student learning, development and outcomes. It allows teachers to enhance the level of education provided to all students, enabling personalized learning tailored to fit the individual needs of each child. AI is further able to facilitate a deeper understanding of the material by generating supplemental resources for students who may be having trouble. Furthermore, AI expands accessibility in education for individuals like those with learning disabilities or lower literacy levels.
AI in education will drive consequential and positive change for America’s youth for generations to come. It’s time for us to ensure that this impact starts now. Learn more at netchoice.org/aieducation.
