First Lady Melania Trump continued to push her message embracing artificial intelligence as a tool in education in an opinion piece she penned and that Fox News published on Saturday.

The first lady wrote about her objectives from the Fostering the Future Together Global Coalition Summit that took place at the U.S. Department of State and the White House last month with 45 spouses of global leaders. The gathering captured headlines after a humanoid robot walked into the White House East Room alongside Mrs. Trump.
