While the national conversation around Artificial Intelligence often focuses on job displacement or the strain on our energy grid, a new effort is underway to use this technology for a more critical mission: protecting and educating our children. Although First Lady Melania Trump has led a White House initiative focusing on AI in the classroom, businessman and advocate Mitch Mitchem believes it is time to take that mission even further.

FOX News Rundown host Lisa Brady recently spoke with Mitchem—the CEO of Hive and a father of four whose son survived a school shooting in Colorado—to get his deeply personal perspective on the debate over school safety. He discussed why American schools must evolve and how integrating AI and robotics can improve both educational outcomes and emergency response times. He also warned of the potential long-term pitfalls if we fail to embrace these technological advancements.
