Abstract:
The growing abundance of information in all spheres of
public life, stemming from the rapid take-up of new information
and communication technologies, poses new challenges for the
development of mankind.
The study examines this phenomenon inthe field of education
as education is of particular importance and has complex influence on
the whole human life and careers.
The need to establish, from an early age, some sort of “filters” in the
consciousness of students to help them sift the really important things
in the ocean of information and develop their knowledge in a consistent
and balanced way, building on sustained learning, is key to their
harmonious development as citizens and professionals, regardless of their profession.
At the same time, the increasingly sophisticated AI systems for logical reasoning
can and should find an adequate implementation in education, assisting this essential
process of filtering and promoting the so-called critical thinking among
adolescents.
