2a. Draws the Commission's attention to the risks inherent in the use of new digital technologies in primary and secondary education, and even in preschooling; recalls that minors should be given special protection in relation to the digital content to which they are likely to be exposed, and in relation to the use that new technologies, such as artificial intelligence, may make of their personal data, especially in schools or educational activities; stresses that the use of digital resources in education has produced documented negative effects on pupils’ attention, development and capabilities; calls therefore on the Commission to limit the deployment of artificial intelligence to higher education and research in cases where learners would be liable come into contact with it;

Amendment 50 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 3
3. Expresses its concern that schools and other public education providers are becoming increasingly dependent on educational technology services, including AI applications, provided by just a few technology companies; stresses that this may lead to unequal access to data and limit competition by restricting consumer choice; calls for this data to be shared with the relevant public authorities so it can be used in the development of curricula and pedagogical practices (in particular since these services are purchased with public money or offered to public education providers for free, and because education is a common good); dependence is likely to lead to a loss of educational know-how that can be used without digital tools, and ultimately to place European education in thrall to technological undertakings in this field, which would limit the autonomy of individual and institutional consumers, or create inequalities between institutions that are equipped with these technologies and those which are not; calls on the Commission to allow Member States leeway to regulate the use and deployment of digital new technologies within their territory in the light of their specific situations;

Amendment 62 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 3 a (new)
3a. Stresses that the dependence created in this way on a small number of educational technology players is liable to harm many suppliers, equipment producers or participants, both in the physical resources sector and among producers of knowledge, including as regards the previous generation of IT tools; stresses that it could also lead to unfair differentials in access to data and limit competition by restricting consumer choice, as these risks also arise in the field of culture; calls for this data to be shared with the relevant public authorities so that it can be used in the development of curricula and teaching methods (in particular since these services are purchased with public money or offered to public education providers for free, and because education is a public asset);
