    As the saying goes… if you do what you always did, you’ll get what you’ve always got. ‘Neutered tech’, as Dan Fitzpatrick, The AI Educator, likes to call it, is when we follow the above approach when we apply technology to our traditional ways of working, and then expecting a different outcome. Dan enables schools to innovate in an AI world. He wrote the bestselling book  "The AI Classroom: The Ultimate Guide to Artificial Intelligence in Education. In this episode of TechToTransform, he speaks to Rebecca Paddick about what the future holds for AI in our schools, and how disruptive edtech leaders can empower educators and learners to embrace AI's potential. Dan talks about the strategy needed for change in an ever-evolving AI world. Take a listen. Dan’s upcoming book,  Infinite Education, provides the four step strategy for leading change in the age of AI.
