In Search of the Lodestar: Education & Generative AI
A little over a year ago, I stood in front of a group of less than 20 people and showed them OpenAI’s Playground and used GPT-3 to produce a few simple examples. That was my first presentation on generative AI. Since then I’ve done close to 70 talks/ presentations. A few weeks ago I gained access to Google’s NotebookLM, an interface that lets you upload up to 10 documents with 50,000 words per document and use Google’s AI to summarize, explore, and synthesize up to 500,000 words. In the space of a year, we’ve gone from context windows of a few thousand words to half a million. I struggle to think about the use cases or implications, but here is where we are, and generative AI isn’t going anywhere. As we near the one year anniversary of ChatGPT’s release, let’s take a moment and consider just how generative AI is already impacting education.

I've noted before that because AI detectors produce false positives, it's unethical to use them to detect cheating.
Now there's a new study that shows it's even worse. Not only do AI detectors falsely flag human-written text as AI-written, the way in which they do it is biased.

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools offer many potential benefits to Government of Canada (GC) institutions. Federal institutions should explore potential uses of generative AI tools for supporting and improving their operations. However, because these tools are evolving, they should not be used in all cases. Federal institutions must be cautious and evaluate the risks before they start using them. The use of these tools should be restricted to instances where risks can be effectively managed.
