Grade 6 · Technology · Lesson 13

Bias checks and verification

AI tools sound confident, but confidence is not the same as truth. Every AI you use is built from a giant pile of human writing — and that pile is uneven, dated, and full of opinions. Smart Grade 6 users know that AI replies are a starting point, not a finish line. You verify before you trust, and you verify before you share.
