The latest report from the World Economic Forum on AI - Shaping the future of learning: Education readiness for the age of AI. Published 4th June 2026.
The report is short - 40 plus pages covering the 'new' context of education. Then a good overview of the risks of unstructured AI adoption, including the challenges AI pose on cognitive atropy; the long standing hallucinations and misinformation created by AI; AI's contribution to the breakdown in academic integrity; and the continued erosion of human connection through digitisation of modern life.
The report argues for the importance on building education readiness for the age of AI. It proposes an AI readiness framework, provides the background principles on the framework's design and how the framework can be applied.
The last section provides 'signals of readiness' for AI in education including the signs for enabling the foundations of AI readiness, along with the requirements of institutional foundations, pedagogical practices and human learning experiences.
Overall, a good introduction to the challenges with pragmatic suggestions for ways forward.
