Class 6 Textbook Pages Show Python and AI Lessons as Instagram Clip Goes Viral

The clip points to a move to teach coding and artificial intelligence earlier in schools, including an 'Ethics and Safety' chapter, with no confirmed publisher or board attribution.

Overview

  • A Mumbai resident, Khushi Jeswani, posted an Instagram video that shows pages from a Class 6 textbook and attracted wide online attention.
  • The pages shown list chapter headings such as 'Machine Learning with Python', 'Data and Visualisation', 'Neural Networks and AI' and 'Ethics and Safety'.
  • Major outlets reported the clip but explicitly noted they have not independently verified the textbook's origin, publisher, school or education-board approval.
  • The post prompted strong social-media reactions that compared today's apparent school curriculum with past basic computer lessons and expressed surprise or anxiety.
  • Journalists framed the discovery as part of a broader trend toward teaching coding and AI earlier in schools, a shift that could speed students' technical fluency and raise questions about teacher training and curriculum oversight.
