Let's do another wrap-up post on the potential influence of AI on learning, starting with this one introducing "what ChatGPT and generative AI are, how they work, and how they will affect the learning and development industry." We're in the early stages of a battle between AI writing tools and tools intended to detect AI writing tools. What won't be detected, though, are the writing aids being deployed like this one in Google Docs and Canva's magic design tools. Here's a brief guide to using AI to do practical stuff. AI is beginning to help people do personal knowledge management (PKM). An example is Dave Winer's Scripting News Bot, trained by Pixelhop on his vast library of posts. Maybe we're entering a post-plagiarism era, writes Sarah Elaine Eaton, where hybrid human-AI writing becomes normal, language barriers disappear, and humans relinguish control to their tools (but not responsibility for the outcome). Learning Designers will have to adapt or die, writes Donald Clark. Maha Bali comments, "Developing a critical AI literacy will become more and more important before we can fully engage with an idea of a postplagiarism era."
