Abstract: The widespread adoption of AI chatbots in education will change classrooms and teaching drastically, making responsible deploy- ment a critical concern. While these bots provide remarkable new op- portunities, it seems already evident that their (almost) unlimited avail- ability also implies serious risks for the learning process. Students can easily access instant, mostly correct, and extensive answers to various kinds of homework problems without ever needing to grapple with the underlying concepts in a deeper sense or generate creative solution ideas by themselves. This can create a growing gap in genuine understanding, critical thinking, and reasoning skills – a trend that might be increasingly reflected in poor learning success at schools and universities [2] and also witnessed in first neuro-psychological studies [3–5]. In our contribution, we demonstrate our approach to these learning challenges in a concrete lecture setting through an AI system designed with responsible AI prin- ciples in mind.
