Here's something worth chewing on this Monday morning.

The AFT is training 400,000 teachers to build their own AI tools — not just use off-the-shelf chatbots for lesson plans. They're calling them "agentic" tools: AI systems that use YOUR professional expertise to narrow the scope and improve the output.

One preschool paraeducator is building an agent that helps brainstorm alternative interventions in real time. A special ed teacher is creating one that tracks daily progress and adjusts IEP plans week to week.

These teachers aren't asking AI to do their jobs. They're asking it to think alongside them.

That's the shift from AI user to AI-fluent professional.

What's ONE thing you'd want an AI thought partner to help you think through in your work? Not create for you — think through WITH you. Drop your answer below.
