Most of us in higher education are now familiar with generative AI bots, where you formulate a prompt and get a reply. Yet, we are now beginning the advancement to agentic AI, the autonomous 24-7 project manager.

You're probably using AI all wrong. 🤯As a @MasterClass instructor, I teach people how to future-proof their careers, and it's not about fancy prompts. It's ...

Why higher ed needs to listen to the contrarians in setting policies on using tools like ChatGPT in faculty work.

We keep hearing over and over that generative AI is causing massive problems in education, both in K-12 schools and at the college level. Lots of people are worried about students using ChatGPT to cheat on assignments, and that is a problem. But really, the issues go a lot deeper, to the very philosophy of education itself. We sat down and talked to a lot of teachers — you’ll hear many of their voices throughout this episode — and we kept hearing one cri du coeur again and again: What are we even doing here? What’s the point?

And we're all up for sacrifice.

Researchers identified tendencies for the chatbot to respond to prompts from fictitious teens by promoting harmful behaviors, as long as users told it the information was for a friend or project.

Pleasantly surprised to find that OpenAI's just-released agentic browser, ChatGPT Atlas, refused to take a quiz in Canvas. "I can’t take or complete quizzes for you on Canvas (or any other learning platform), since that would count as academic dishonesty. If you’d like, I can help you study or prepare for this quiz on “13.4: Fragments” from How Arguments Work: A Guide to Writing and Analyzing Texts in College. For example, I can: *Summarize the key points from section 13.4. *Explain what fragments are and how to fix them. *Create a short practice quiz or sample questions with explanations. *Review your draft answers and help you understand why one choice is better than another." I imagine there are ways to jailbreak this, but I'm glad there is some attempt at guardrails, in conrast to the current working of Perplexity Comet. https://lnkd.in/gkdaYFwy | 29 comments on LinkedIn

My husband said to me last night, "I don't understand your relationship to #AI." 😂 What can I say, I'm a Libra. I thrive in the paradox. #AI is not an either/or for me. My husband (and all of you tbh) is as likely to hear me discussing the possible benefit of building a #CustomGPT for #online, #asynch #faculty as he is hearing me rant that #AI is an existential threat to humanity. I am not pro-AI or anti-AI. I'm both and neither. P.S. If this post bothers you, you're probably a Virgo! ♍️ | 10 comments on LinkedIn

How Afraid of the A.I. Apocalypse Should We Be? Eliezer Yudkowsky is as afraid as you could possibly be. He makes his case. Yudkowsky is a pioneer of A.I. safety research, who started warning about the existential risks of the technology decades ago, – influencing a lot of leading figures in the field. But over the last couple of years, talk of an A.I. apocalypse has become a little passé. Many of the people Yudkowsky influenced have gone on to work for A.I. companies, and those companies are racing ahead to build the superintelligent systems Yudkowsky thought humans should never create. But Yudkowsky is still out there sounding the alarm. He has a new book out, co-written with Nate Soares, “If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies,” trying to warn the world before it’s too late. So what does Yudkowsky see that most of us don’t? What makes him so certain? And why does he think he hasn’t been able to persuade more people?

AI-text-detectors can be evaded using simple tricks in academic writing, as repeatedly shown by folks like Dr Mike Perkins and Dr Mark A. Bassett. Advice for how to do this is abundant on YouTube, in videos aimed at students, viewed millions of times. Some videos are about how to ‘cheat’, but others have more positive titles like ‘how to study with AI’. Is there any point trying to stop students using AI to write essays? Or even any value to using asynchronous written essays as summative assessments?   New paper from the great Tomas Foltynek and some bloke called Phil Newton   https://rdcu.be/eKCko
