LONDON — The United Kingdom's government announced on Wednesday a 'first-of-its-kind' £4-million ($5.2-million) project to bolster artificial intelligence (AI) tools to help teachers plan lessons and mark homework.

As part of the project, government documents like curriculum guidance, lesson plans and student assessments will be provided to AI companies to train their tech to 'generate accurate, high-quality content, like tailored, creative lesson plans and workbooks.'
