> "to develop Al tools that can help assess classroom interaction quality". This..feels like a worthy goal.

Does it though? Do you really want everything, including caring for young children, to be quantified into metrics assessed by a computer?

We don’t have to make that number a goal. Contrary to popular pessimistic thought, not everything we measure becomes a goal. Most things we measure are actually ignored.

I think to pre-emptively disregard research like this because “well it could be misused” is folly
