At Kalvi Kural 2026, organised by the Madhi Foundation, Akshay joined voices from civil society, government, Tech4Good and government-school teachers to explore the role of AI in Indian classrooms.
The conversation highlighted the need to build technology around what teachers and students genuinely need, not what we assume they need.
As AI advances, children must be prepared not only to use it, but also to understand, question and eventually build it. This means strengthening foundational learning, improving the rigour of STEM education and preserving the human joy of teaching and learning.
