from AI for Oklahoma Classrooms · host krleonard22
The AI for Oklahoma Classrooms podcast with Dr. Karen Leonard explains why generative AI sometimes makes up information ("hallucinations") and how that predictable behavior can become a powerful classroom lesson. Learn the difference between AI as a probability engine and a fact machine, why it can sound confident but be wrong, and how to teach students to verify AI outputs using a short classroom activity called the Fact-Check Face-Off. Produced by the Oklahoma State Department of Education's Office of AI and Digital Learning.
