I'm helping a national non-profit prepare a white paper about the legal risks posed by the use of student-facing AI at postsecondary schools in the US.
What are the most surprising or unexpected uses of AI at a college/University/trade school that you've seen?
What are some of the less obvious ways that AI could harm students?
Please assume that we're not idiots or ignorant of the general risks or harms that students face as humans, I'm trying to limit this to student-specific issues.
"What are some of the less obvious ways that AI could harm students? "
That seems like an entirely unbiased "help" you're providing.
Rather than (seemingly) providing another ideological AiBad essay, may I advise to have a look what other, more stable nations are doing with #aieducation in schools.
@n_dimension Thanks.
I can understand why you'd assume that my intent is to trash AI given my ask and the general Fediverse take on AI. However, that's not the case, and, even if it were, the genie is out of the bottle. It's impossible for me to miss the claimed benefits of AI in education. Every EdTech vendor is selling their AI-based solutions and shouting their benefits from the rooftops, so I don't feel the need to crowdsource the possible benefits of AI - I can't escape them.
Fundamentally, it is responsibility of educators to prepare students for the changing world.
Barring a revolution, the last people to turn off the lights at workplaces, will be folks with mastery of Ai.
If you are looking for the negatives of #AiSlop
In my opinion, the major one is the destruction of the working class.
The crapitalists destroyed the proletariat with steam shovels and assembly lines
And with a few exceptions, the middle and upper classes (doctors, lawyers) of the proletariat were ok with it. Now the machines came for their jobs, there is no one to crew the barricades.
The ecological damage, the IP abuse is a distraction to keep the AI opponents busy.
AI is a Labor, political issue and with the exception of Euros, Anglo sphere is not addressing the political reality.
