A Deloitte back-to-school survey finds that many parents are uneasy about how children use artificial intelligence. Across the reports, about half of parents say they worry their child “relies on AI too much,” with one outlet citing 49% and another describing the result as “half.” The survey results also highlight a perceived gap between classroom adoption and school support. Digital Trends reports that only 33% of schools have AI guidelines in place, suggesting that while AI tools are being used in school settings, formal guidance is not yet widespread. Other coverage frames the concern as children leaning on AI as a “crutch” rather than developing independent learning skills. Business Insider and The Next Web describe AI moving into primary school classrooms and note that parents are raising questions about responsible use. The Washington Times similarly reports that nearly half of American parents express worry about heavy reliance on AI at school and at home. Overall, the articles describe growing parent concern alongside limited evidence of consistent AI policies in schools.
