Education & Learning Weekly AI News

September 8 - September 16, 2025

This week brought exciting news about AI agents in education. These smart computer helpers are changing how people learn and work.

MIT, one of America's top schools, started a new online class about agentic AI. The class is called "Applied Agentic AI for Organizational Transformation." It runs for eight weeks and teaches people how to use smart AI helpers in their companies. This shows that even the best schools think agentic AI is very important to learn about.

Genesys, a big technology company, also launched new AI agents with a special education program. These AI helpers can work on their own and make smart choices. The company wants to teach people how to use these new tools properly.

At a big conference in Peru called APEXO 2025, experts talked about how AI agents are being used in schools and education. They shared real examples of how these smart helpers are making learning better for students. The conference showed that agentic AI is already helping in education, healthcare, and other important areas.

These developments show that AI agents are becoming more common in education. Unlike old computer programs that just follow rules, these new AI helpers can think, plan, and solve problems on their own. Schools and companies are starting to use them to make learning easier and more fun for everyone.
