As much as we need to and should support students with adopting new technologies such as AI, educators are being thrown into the deep end and expected to swim with very little instruction or support. From working with teachers while at GitHub and as part of Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB), it is clear that we ask much of our teachers. They are expected to learn not only basic computing and software development, but also version control, collaborative software development, and now, how to teach about and with AI. This is daunting anywhere and even more daunting in the developing world where experienced mentors and resources can be scarce.

Wikipedia, GitHub, and arXiv show us that free and open access can be transformative and lower barriers of access to entry to new skills and careers.
