Oh yes, another proposed silver bullet to latch onto for improving education.

The presentation makes this out to bring very profound changes, but this is something I honestly doubt. A voice-controlled information aggregator might prove useful for quick lookups, but it won't dispense in-depth research.

It's almost as if they think Siri will make schools obsolete. Then you have the ethical conundrums of proprietary software to contemplate as well for such a core part of your curriculum.
