概要
 A couple of years ago Donald visited South Korea and watched four- and five-year-olds build models of an ecosystem powered by solar energy. In the spring of 2025 he visited a C-STEM teaching and experimental building inside a school in Nanjing, China, and spoke at a seminar in Shanghai with the educators behind it. In neither country did anyone ask whether technology belonged in the curriculum. This episode follows four governments answering the same question four ways: China required artificial intelligence instruction everywhere and set limits on the tool; South Korea rolled out AI digital textbooks, committed over 500 billion won, and watched teachers, parents, and voters reverse the plan within a semester; Vietnam piloted a framework with 101,000 teachers and 1.29 million students and then scaled it nationwide; the United States set a national goal and left the classroom to districts and companies. Underneath all four is a second source in the classroom that nobody vetted the way a school vets a teacher. A Stanford white paper found the language models behind most of these tools work well in English and far less well in Vietnamese or Nahuatl. Chinese researchers concluded a Western STEM curriculum could not be moved into Chinese schools as it came. The question they asked about STEM is the question every country now has to ask about artificial intelligence: whose culture is built into it, and what happens to the children whose culture is not. The episode closes with the season's recurring question, would it take root?
