One morning in April, Tracy Lowd, a social studies teacher in Miami, tried a new approach to making government policy come alive for her high school students. She used artificial intelligence chatbots to role-play American presidents.<\/p>\n

Her class at Southwest Miami Senior High School<\/a> had already read about John F. Kennedy and discussed his campaign for \u201cnew frontier\u201d economic and social policies. Now Ms. Lowd asked two dozen 11th graders to open their laptops and type a prompt into Google\u2019s Gemini chatbot: \u201cAct like President Kennedy. What was the new frontier?\u201d<\/p>\n

The chatbot quickly spat out paragraphs of Kennedyesque text, including phrases like \u201cmy fellow Americans.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Then Ms. Lowd asked her students to analyze whether the chatbot simulations accurately reflected the Kennedy speeches they had studied. The teenagers\u2019 verdict: The simulations were \u201cawkward,\u201d \u201cweird\u201d and yet still credible.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cIt did a very good job of impersonating J.F.K.,\u201d said Ashley Acedo, 17.<\/p>\n

Miami-Dade County Public Schools, the nation\u2019s third-largest school distric<\/a>t, is at the forefront of a fast-moving national experiment to embed generative A.I. technologies into teaching and learning. Over the last year, the district has trained more than 1,000 educators on new A.I. tools and is now introducing Google chatbots for more than 105,000 high schoolers \u2014 the largest U.S. school district deployment of its kind to date.<\/p>\n
