1. Notes that the Commission has proposed to rapidly deploy products and services that rely on AI in areas of public interest and the public sector; emphasises that in the education sector, this deployment should involve educators, learners and wider society and take their needs and the expected benefits into account in order to ensure that AI is used purposefully and ethically; expresses its concerns that telecommunication infrastructures in some regions across the European Union are lacking, which limits the accessibility to products and services that rely on AI and calls on the Commission to deploy sustained efforts in ameliorating telecommunication infrastructures in such regions, particularly with regards to the public education sector;
