Script of a presentation (video is here). It begins with this premise: headline in the New Scientist: AI achieves its best ever mark on a set of English exam questions. Rose Luckin writes, "this headline draws our attention to the fact that we can build AI that can achieve what we set our students to achieve. The AI will get better and faster at this and it therefore is not intelligent to continue to educate humans to do what we can automate." So, she suggests, " The need to change the what and how of teaching will be my third area for discussion tonight." But (to my mind) maybe we should be looking at how we train AIs for clues about how to help people learn. Luckin, meanwhile, argue "We need to make these three things happen: Use AI to tackle educational challenges, prioritize the development of our uniquely human intelligence, educate people about AI. To do this we need partnerships between educational stakeholders to build capacity."
