In Brave New Words: How AI Will Revolutionize Education (and Why That’s a Good Thing), Salman Khan, the founder of Khan Academy, presents a compelling, optimistic roadmap for how artificial intelligence can transform learning for the better.
As the founder of Khan Academy, Khan draws from personal experience and global impact, exploring how AI can personalize instruction, close achievement gaps, and elevate the role of teachers rather than replace them.
His narrative blends real-world application with aspirational thinking, making a persuasive case for AI as a force multiplier for human educational potential.
With a clear-eyed look at technologies like GPT-powered tutors and intelligent learning platforms, Khan brings readers inside the next wave of innovation already unfolding in classrooms. He addresses the philosophical and practical questions educators and leaders grapple with, from student data privacy to preserving creativity and emotional intelligence in AI-assisted environments.
For business and education leaders, this book is a compelling call to action. Khan challenges readers to engage with AI not from a place of fear, but from one of possibility, where technology supports deeper learning and broader access.
Brave New Words equips decision-makers with the foresight to navigate disruption with purpose and the tools to shape a more inclusive and empowered educational future.
