A brilliant start on analysis of an impossibly sprawling subject. Some very very sharp insights. I only have expertise in education and I’d disagree with some aspects - and agree with 80%. Great stuff.
Thanks Tim, feel free to disagree! My main expertise in education too but I read and try to understand this issue because it's impact on education is so profound.
As a current (very) mature student I can only dispair at the thought of future generations outsourcing their capacity to think and articulate themselves (both skills which take time and effort to develop) in the age of AI's generative abilities. One place for obvious intervention is to try and reduce as much as possible students' reliance on this technology, even if that means more frequent mini assessments which will have to be supervised and hand written (which has its own cognitive benefits by itself apparently)
Hi Oshik, in my next post I am going to get right into this topic, which is very close to my heart. Thank you for bothering to comment, and welcome to the substack. i really appreciate requests to write on particular topics around AI and learning.
Referred here by John Naughton and got a compelling set of insights as the reward
As ever Helen a very thought provoking post. Thank you for writing such an in depth reflection.
