Educating Beyond the Algorithm: The Diversity Project and the Renewal of the Educational Pact in the Age of Artificial Intelligence

The rapid expansion of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping education not only through new technologies and institutional practices, but also through a deeper transformation of the very meaning of formation, learning and human agency. This article examines the ethical and pedagogical implications of AI through the concept of the Promethean gap, understood as the growing discrepancy between technological power and the human capacity for responsibility and moral understanding.
