Artificial intelligence is driving one of the most significant shifts in education in decades. From personalized learning journeys and lifelong skill development to AI-powered mentorship and new approaches to assessment, institutions are rethinking how learning is designed, delivered, and measured.
In this interview with Javier Scher, SVP Technology and Head of Education AI Studio at Globant, we explore how AI is reshaping education and what it takes to build learning ecosystems that are scalable, adaptable, and centered on human development. Watch the full interview below to hear expert insights on the opportunities, challenges, and transformations ahead.
1.What excites you the most about AI in education at scale?
2.In an AI-native education ecosystem, what should assessment actually measure, and which traditional metrics should we be willing to leave behind?
3.How do we design AI in education that develops critical thinking and mastery rather than replacing the effort that learning requires?
4.How can technology help create seamless learning journeys that evolve with people throughout their lives, careers, and changing goals?
5.What are the most critical gaps in how the education industry is adopting technology and AI today?
6.What does it take to design learning tools that are modular, scalable, and able to evolve alongside institutions and learners over time?
A different unwritten path for students and teachers
Perhaps the most interesting takeaway is that the future of education may have less to do with technology itself and more with the questions it forces us to ask. What should learning look like when information is abundant? How do we measure growth when knowledge is instantly accessible? And how do we ensure that AI expands human potential rather than replacing it? The answers are still being written, but the conversations shaping them are already underway.
As classrooms become more diverse and the pace of change accelerates, Artificial Intelligence is redefining how learning happens. Today’s AI doesn’t just automate, it learns alongside students, adapting content to individual strengths, identifying gaps, and supporting educators with real-time insights. By freeing teachers from routine tasks like grading and lesson planning, AI enables the design of learning experiences that are both rigorous and deeply human. The true promise of AI learning tools lies in their ability to foster meaningful growth for every learner, empowering teachers to nurture curiosity and help students thrive in an ever-changing world.
The next chapter of education may be organized around the learner rather than the institution. Around continuous development rather than discrete milestones. Around personalized pathways rather than standardized journeys. AI has the potential to help create learning experiences that adapt to individual goals, evolve alongside changing careers, and provide guidance at every stage of life.
