A newly released parents' guide from a technical assistance center outlines best practices and key warnings for families navigating disputes with schools over special education services, particularly in the use of artificial intelligence. The resource aims to help parents understand how AI tools may influence evaluations, recommendations, or decision-making processes while highlighting potential risks of bias or misinterpretation. With schools increasingly adopting AI-driven assessments, the guide serves as a cautionary framework to ensure fair and accurate support for students with disabilities. Parents are advised to approach AI-assisted evaluations with scrutiny, verifying results and advocating for human oversight when necessary.
