They will be teaching AI in high school. This ban is only for the lower grades.

Even when they teach it, screen time will be limited to 45 minutes per week.

It's not about 'passion against AI', it's a year waiting period. There isn't much evidence that AI improves student outcomes, and there's more cases showing harm, so the responsible approach is to wait for more information.

Also, they've banned phone use for quite a while now, which I think most people agree is correct in a learning env.
