Generative AI: Artificial Intelligence - Large Language Models

The ethical adoption of AI requires the empowerment of instructors. Rather than hoping that AI detectors score an unlikely victory in an arms race against generative AI tools, institutions should focus on providing instructors the support and resources they need to embrace authentic assessment practices. Learning technologies—including those powered by AI—should help to facilitate these kinds of assessments, as well as provide efficiency for educators by reducing time spent on administrative and production tasks. With their focus on the application of skills rather than the accrual of knowledge, authentic assessments elicit the nuances, experiences, and even fallibilities that define human beings, but evade generative AI.

Artificial intelligence (AI) and new technologies are having a pervasive impact on modern societies and communities. Given the potential of these new technologies to transform the way things are done, it is important to understand how they can be used to support inclusive education, particularly regarding minority students.
