It can't. It just fucking can't. We're all pretending it does, but it fundamentally can't.

Creative thinking is still a long way beyond reasoning as well. We're not close yet.
It can and it has done creative mathematical proof work. Nothing spectacular, but at least on par with a mathematics grad student.
Specialized AI like that is not what most people know as AI. Most people reffer to it as LLMs.
Specialized AI, like that showcased, is still decades away from generalized creative thinking. You can't ask it to do a science experiment with in a class because it just can't. It's only built for math proof.
Again, my argument is that it won't never exist.
Just that it's so far off it'd be like trying to regulate smart phone laws in the 90s. We would have only had pipe dreams as to what the tech could be, never mind its broader social context.
So tall to me when it can, in the case of this thread, clinically validated ways of teaching. We're still decades from that.
Show me a human that can do it.

EDIT: you can literally get a PhD in many forms of education and have an entire career studying it.
