THE FINAL WARNING: WHY OT THEORY MUST BE INTEGRATED INTO GLOBAL EDUCATION BY THE END OF 2025

Abstract

This article warns that if we don’t urgently integrate Odam Tili (OT) theory into education systems by the end of 2025, humanity risks losing control over how artificial intelligence develops cognitively. Drawing from linguistics, cognitive science, and AI ethics, it shows how current ways of teaching language and logic fail to provide AI with stable meanings rooted in reality. Instead, AI ends up learning distorted symbols—errors multiplied at scale. The paper closes with a practical roadmap for education reform to reclaim semantic sovereignty in this new age of intelligent machines
