  "account": "Former Prime Minister Khairy Jamaluddin, along with former Prime Minister’s Department economic adviser Shahril Hamdan, warned during a Class Kejap fast-track consultation in Ampang that artificial intelligence (AI) should be used as a learning aid for children, rather than as a means to bypass critical thinking processes. AI can assist children in developing skills without being a shortcut to obtaining answers through reading, discussion, or thought, Khairy said. He also urged parents to pay attention to the purpose of using the technology.\n\nKhairy emphasized that AI should serve as a co-pilot, not a pilot, ensuring that children remain the passengers. He made these remarks during a Class Kejap consultation in Ampang, alongside former Prime Minister’s Department economic adviser Shahril Hamdan and Isaac Tan. Class Kejap was launched in January 2026 as an English language learning application and is now used in schools as a supplement to classroom learning. Employing the \"learn by talking\" approach, Class Kejap allows users to converse with AI tutors tailored to their proficiency, interests, and goals. Beyond its current English offerings, Khairy announced that Class Kejap plans to expand its curriculum to include Malay, Mandarin, and financial literacy, as well as develop the platform's use for workforce training through Class Kejap for Enterprise.",
