Mamdani Unveils AI Moratorium for Schools Through 8th Grade, Screen Time Limits

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has unveiled a one-year ban on the use of student-facing generative AI across the city’s public schools through eighth grade, and restrictions on the use of the technology in high schools. “The tech industry wants us to believe that A.I.-powered early education is not only inevitable, but necessary. We do not see it that way,” said Mamdani in a statement.
