We can't automate teachers, in any effective manner. To teach requires an empathetic comprehension of the student's misunderstanding. That right there requirements an AI goal so far a head of our current capabilities, it may as well be called impossible. Modern AI has no capacity whatsoever for comprehension, and that is about as big a failure as something called an artificial intelligence can fail.

We can definitely automate many parts of tutoring, but physical teachers will still be important for the reasons you describe.

My point being, the critical support a teacher provides when they "help a student" requires the teacher to comprehend the misunderstanding of the student - that comprehension step is beyond current known science to artificially replicate.
