The technology expert named the methods of learning using neural networks

Neural networks become not only assistants at work and at home, but also full-fledged tutors. They are able to explain complex topics in simple words, provide illustrative examples, test knowledge and suggest gaps in understanding the material. Nikolay Turubar, Director of Articul Development, technology expert and chairman of the RAEC artificial Intelligence cluster, told Izvestia on September 4.

He noted that about 86% of students already use artificial intelligence (AI) for their studies: 24% do it daily, and 54% do it at least once a week.

"The advantage of neural networks is that they adapt to the user's level. The topic will be explained to the student using simple examples, and to the graduate student with references to scientific sources. This makes training more flexible and personalized," the specialist clarifies.

According to him, AI works most effectively in three directions: explaining the material in "human language", training knowledge through tests and questions, as well as practicing practical skills — whether it's a foreign language, mathematics or programming. Students note that neural networks help create summaries and lesson plans, translate complex articles, parse obscure terms, and train skills through dialogue. And most importantly, they don't get tired.

How will the new measures help courts resolve disputes over content created using neural networks?

The main life hack is to formulate as specific requests as possible, specifying the level of complexity and response format. For example: "Explain the topic at the 9th grade level with simple examples" or "Check my answer and fill in the blanks." You can ask the AI to act as an examiner or interlocutor, generate flashcards and cheat sheets for repetition, and compare different explanations of the same topic. This approach helps to learn the material more deeply and consolidate it in memory.

However, neural networks have limitations. They can "hallucinate" by inventing facts that are not there. Therefore, it is important to check each result according to textbooks, official sources or scientific publications. AI should be considered as a draft or a starting point for study, not as the ultimate truth.

A complete teacher replacement is not yet possible. The teacher not only transmits knowledge, but also motivates, develops critical thinking, and creates an individual approach. "The role of teachers will change: They will become mentors helping students use digital tools effectively," the expert adds.

In the coming years, education will become more personalized. Each student will have a digital assistant who selects materials, adapts the curriculum, and monitors progress. Technology provides speed and convenience, while teachers provide quality and meaning. And, as the expert emphasizes, speed without meaning cannot replace live interaction.

On August 21, Izvestia reported that every fifth (22%) working Russian had bought a subscription to AI services at least once. In addition, 18% of respondents used free versions of neural networks. Slightly less than 17% of respondents expressed a desire to purchase a subscription on a paid basis in the future. The average monthly expenses of Russians for such services amount to 5.7 thousand rubles.
