AI... everything we are learning now, like Python and AI, they already have all of that in Class 6.”12347
She highlights chapters on Machine Learning with Python, Data and Visualisation, and Neural Networks, questioning, “Bro, are we engineers crazy? Ethics and Safety. What is all of this? Why is all of this even here?” Her surprise reflects a broader trend in education, as many users commented on social media about the rapid evolution of learning materials.56
One user remarked, “Times have changed. Keep up or sell pakoda and momos,” while another noted that their child is learning basic JavaScript in third grade. The video prompted many to compare their own educational experiences, with comments like, “We definitely didn't have this in school,” and “Kids are way ahead of us now.” Jeswani's video has ignited discussions about the appropriateness and implications of introducing such advanced topics at an early age, raising questions about the future of education.
