This week, Dan and Ray bring a whirlwind of AI news, research, and reflection from across the education world. From South Australia and New South Wales announcing state-wide AI chatbot rollouts for schools, to Oxford University embracing ChatGPT Education for all staff and students, the scale of adoption is hard to ignore.

The hosts explore what these bold moves mean for schools, universities, and the future of assessment. They highlight contrasts between Australia’s rapid school-level deployments and the slower university approach, and compare these with global examples such as Arizona State University’s 158,000-student rollout.

The conversation doesn’t stop at institutions. Ray and Dan unpack new releases from Microsoft, OpenAI, and Google - including multi-model Copilot, parental controls in ChatGPT, and the startling realism of Sora 2 videos. They also reflect on recent surveys showing student demand for clearer AI guidance.
