CHM Live | The Great Chatbot Debate: Do LLMs Really Understand?
[Recorded March 25, 2025]
Chatbots based on large language models (LLMs), like ChatGPT, answer sophisticated questions, pass professional exams, analyze texts, generate everything from poems to computer programs, and more. But is there genuine understanding behind what LLMs can do? Do they really understand our world? Or, are they a triumph of mathematics and masses of data and calculations simulating true understanding?
Join CHM, in partnership with IEEE Spectrum, for a fundamental debate on the nature of today’s AI: Do LLMs demonstrate genuine understanding, the “sparks” of true intelligence, or are they “stochastic parrots,” lacking understanding and meaning?

How can colleges and universities best engage with artificial intelligence?This week the Future Trends Forum explores that major question from a new perspective. The experience of developing and implementing open education resources (OER) has given us many lessons and practices which we can apply to AI. We're hosting the authors of a new paper, "How do we respond to generative AI in education? Open educational practices give us a framework for an ongoing process": Anna Mills, Lance Eaton, and Forum favorite Maha Bali.https://journals.sfu.ca/jalt/index.php/jalt/article/view/843https://www.annarmills.com/https://www.lanceeaton.com/https://blog.mahabali.me/This event is powered by Shindig, the video chat event provider. On Shindig, audiences all can see one another and engage in private video chats sharing and discussing the content of the presentation. Event hosts may also bring selected audience members to the stage to ask questions or otherwise interact with guest speakers. Shindig; the dynamics of in person events, online.
