An AI teaching tool company in Brooklyn, called Learning Innovation Catalyst (LINC), has been found to have fake "testimonials" from New York City (NYC) teachers on its website. The co-CEO of LINC, Jason Green, is a friend of NYC schools chancellor David Banks. LINC has received $4. 3 million in city funds since 2018 and its AI tool, Yourwai, which generates lesson plans, is being tested in Brooklyn schools. The company used fake names in the testimonials and could not provide proof that real educators had given them.
After an inquiry, the company removed the names and references to NYC from the quotes. LINC claimed that the quotes came from actual teachers and administrators but could not identify them or confirm if they worked for NYC public schools. The company did not answer whether it had permission from the NYC Department of Education to quote school employees. Critics have warned about the use of AI in education due to biases and inaccuracies.
