School Mathematics as Antidote to Slavery under AI

All of us are now facing the challenge of to our human capability/intelligence from AI, which appears to be so much more capable/intelligent in all aspects of mental activity. If we do not come up with constructive form of resistance we will end up as slaves under AI and we will have lost our individuality as human beings. Flat refusal to any contact with AI will not help, since that will just give more room for AI to take over. 

What is required is some form of resistance to become a slave under AI, and that can only come from some capability to "think ourselves" and that must be grounded during school years as the formative period. This is already expressed in a progressive goal of opening students to "critical thinking", which however in recent years has been reversed into "read to book" or in its form in physics "shut up and calculate".

There is one subject in school which could serve as antidote to slavery under AI, and that is the very subject behind AI, namely mathematics. But then not the traditional school mathematics, where during 5 hours a week during 9 years the young mind is helped very little towards "critical thinking yourself" simply because that is not at all the goal. 

But it is possible to envision a new school mathematics where "mathematical thinking" as the basis of AI can be opened to the young mind in the same constructive way as "learning to speak and write" by doing it. 

Leibniz World of Math is a concrete realization of such a program. Leibniz can be seen as the father of AI as forms of "automated thinking" as well as the other leg of AI as the "automated computing" performed in the data centers of AI. 

With a bit of Leibniz as thinking and computing learned in school it may possible to keep human individuality and resist becoming a slave under AI. But that requires a new goal, form and content of school mathematics. The first step is to open a discussion. Without the next generation will have too little resistance to slavery under AI, which can well be the goal of present leadership but not that of the people.

The encouragement to students at KTH to "think yourself" in my math book Mathematical Simulation Technology was viewed so revolutionary that this book was banned/censored at KTH in 2011 by the Rector under pressure from the math department.
