Abstract

Estonia has a reputation as one of the most digitally advanced nations in the world, thanks to its efficient digital platforms for government services and its startup-friendly culture. Its citizens' prowess is largely due to a program called Tiger Leap that the government launched in the 1990s to bring computers and Internet into all Estonian schools. Now, the government is launching AI Leap 2025, which will bring AI tools to an initial cohort of 20,000 high school students in September. Siim Sikkut, a former Estonian government official and part of the launch team, told IEEE Spectrum the AI Leap program goes beyond just providing access to new technology. Its goal is to give students the skills they need to use it both ethically and effectively.

Siim Sikkut：爱沙尼亚正在将教育聊天机器人带入课堂

由于其高效的政府服务数字平台和对创业友好的文化，爱沙尼亚被誉为世界上数字化最先进的国家之一。爱沙尼亚公民的能力很大程度上要归功于政府在上世纪90年代启动的一个名为“老虎飞跃”（Tiger Leap）的项目，该项目旨在将计算机和互联网带入爱沙尼亚所有的学校。现在，政府正在启动“人工智能飞跃2025”，该计划将于9月份向首批2万名高中生提供人工智能工具。前爱沙尼亚政府官员、发射团队成员Siim Sikkut告诉IEEE Spectrum， AI Leap计划不仅仅是提供对新技术的访问。它的目标是给学生提供他们需要的技能，既道德又有效地使用它。
