Student Retention & Productivity

Can AI improve productivity & retention among students and workers with lower abilities? Some research suggests that AI can enhance work lives, boost productivity, and retain low-skilled workers who require upskilling. Personally, I utilize AI (Grammarly, ChatGPT, etc.) in my supply chain logistics courses to help support disadvantaged, low-ability, older learners, and non-native English speakers during discussions and challenging work-based projects. And, more importantly, to monitor their progress on the Learning Management System (LMS) to improve participation, retention, and task completion. I would love to hear what you think about this.
