Tech Headlines Check

Students read a series of AI-related headlines and evaluate whether each one is realistic, risky, or dangerous enough to need human intervention. Learners must circle their verdict and briefly explain their reasoning, encouraging analysis of safety, feasibility, and ethical considerations. The activity develops skepticism and critical evaluation of technological claims. Students learn to distinguish between sensationalism and plausible AI capabilities while practicing concise written justification.
