Hopefully, more people get to understand that there is no need to be in the extremes when it comes to the use of AI. I’ve actually noticed that the majority of people tend to either be against the use of AI or simply let it do the work. I’m an advocate of responsible AI (its development and its use), and I believe that striking a balance is key.
My latest post actually discusses introducing AI to kids for that reason (you can take a look below, if you’re interested). I’m against the mindless introduction of AI to kids, and I’m concerned about parents/guardians who simply refuse to introduce AI to their kids because of the misconceptions around it.
I believe that human intelligence should be the driver in this process guiding, educating, and ensuring that AI is used in a way that enhances learning and creativity without compromising critical thinking or personal development. It’s not about replacing human insight, but empowering the next generation to navigate and shape the future with the right tools.
We're the same here, Rebecca! We should occupy the happy, mindful middle when it comes to these things.
The deniers are burying their head in the sand while a big chaotic wave is coming.
The encourages are just letting the waves carry them wherever the waves will take them.
We need to be in the middle. We need to be aware, and adapt. And we can only do that by engaging and interacting with these tools enough to form opinions about them.
Lot of interesting ideas. I’m still only using AI to find proofread/find mistakes. The research method makes a lot of sense though when exploring related/new topics for potential overlap with our areas of expertise
Thanks, Kyle! And yes, definitely makes a lot of sense. Research is one of the areas where AI excel at -- it can read and summarize text like nobody's business. But you have to be very careful about hallucinations. You need to get good on what things are most likely fabrications, and which are likely true.
Great insights James!
