AI Enhances Educational Access, But at a Cost

The market for advanced AI educational machines is significant, with top-selling models priced around 2,000 to 3,000 yuan and premium devices reaching up to 9,000 yuan. These devices cater to a broad age range, providing AI courses in math, English, and Chinese for children from kindergarten to middle school. They boast 35 AI assistance features, including tools for reading, translation, and homework correction. The capability to analyze essays and learning problems through image recognition adds to their utility. However, the high cost raises questions about accessibility, potentially necessitating teacher involvement to maximize educational benefits.
