AI on campus- researchers look at impact Part 3

from Techstination · host Fred Fishkin

Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear. I’m Fred Fishkin. The use of AI on many campuses today is creating mistrust, anxiety and a myriad of issues for all concerned. A team at the University of Pittsburgh is looking into the issues…and lead researcher Dr. Elise Silva says schools may not have clear guidelines…and then what about enforcement? “I think that that’s a huge question. We even asked students.. if you were making the rules, if you were making the policies, what would you do? And they were just as lost as I think a lot of policy makers are.”Some schools, like Pitt, are actually looking into creating their own AI tools so they can be more easily monitored. And of course, AI can have great benefits in education..and in the working world students are being prepared for. Easy answers, sorry. We’ll likely need some help on this, from AI.You can find us at Techstination.com. I’m Fred Fishkin.
