Florida Board of Education Approves New AI Policies for K-12 Schools and State Colleges

The Florida Board of Education has passed new rules governing the use of artificial intelligence in K-12 public schools and state colleges. For K-12, parental consent will be required for students to use AI products, and districts must offer non-AI alternatives if parents opt out. State colleges are now mandated to adopt policies limiting AI use in graded assignments unless explicitly permitted by instructors.
