Generalized domain tutoring framework for AI agents with integrated explainable AI techniques

Abstrak

This paper proposes a novel approach to integrate tutoring functionality into AI systems to counteract the potential decline of human intelligence caused by AI-driven over-automation. Existing explainable AI methods primarily emphasize transparency while lacking inherent educational functionality. Consequently, users are essentially left as passive recipients of AI-driven decisions without any structured learning mechanism in place. To address this, this paper introduces the knowledge-sharing-bridge (KSB), a component designed to transform AI into an active tutor. Unlike traditional intelligent tutoring systems (ITS), which operate separately from AI decision-making processes, the KSB is embedded within AI frameworks, ensuring continuous and context-aware learning opportunities. The proposed framework uses structured knowledge representation tools, such as category maps and word-clouds, to improve the user’s understanding of the decisions made by the AI systems. Prototype implementation demonstrates how these elements work together to provide real-time, interactive learning experiences. The results indicate that integrating KSB into AI enhances both explainability and user learning. This approach promotes a more in-depth interaction with AI insights and enables AI systems to become lifelong learning companions, closing the gap between automation and education.
