I'm going to be reflecting on "AI" and education with the German Ethics Council on 13 December, online, in German.

They wrote a 400 page report on ethics and AI!

@jeppe @pluralistic Jeg har lige læst Thomas Lindgrens Critical Theory of AI - den forholder sig også særdeles kritisk til hele komplekset og sætter KI ind i mange forskellige sammenhænge. Jeg synes faktisk, at Inga også har en kritisk kant ift. mange forhold til KI - blandt andet om explainability. Lindgrens pointe er dog, at det ikke giver mening at tale om etisk KI, fordi problemet er systemisk, hvilket giver god mening. #KIUdd #skolechat #AIEd

@jeppe @jeppe I så fald kan jeg ikke anbefale Inga Strümpkes bog "Maskiner der tænker. Algoritmernes hemmeligheder og vejen til kunstig intelligens" nok - hun arbejder eksplicit med explainable AI og er fantastisk på alle måder. Den har jeg naturligvis også anmeldt: @jeppe I så fald kan jeg ikke anbefale Inga Strümpkes bog "Maskiner der tænker.

Hvem er på #Reddit - og kan man bruge det til noget? Jeg har prøvet nogle gange, men jeg kan simpelthen ikke finde noget, der er af interesse ift. skole, uddannelse og den slags, jeg interesserer mig for. Nogen der har et bud på, hvordan man griber det an? #skolechat #uddpol #dkpol #AIEd #KIudd

"Red lines? Shall not exist in the EU" Industriens interesser slår (altid) de fælles menneskelige interesser. Det gælder selvfølgelig også, når det kommer til regulering af #AI. ØV! https://lnkd.in/dXjhPFnk #AIEd #AIUdd #skolechat #demokrati #medborgerskab

Tænk på en person, der gør rent. Hmmm - Eller tænk på, hvordan en kvinde ser ud. Hmmmmm Er det the male gaze (Laura Mulvey), der slår igennem? #ai #simpeltest #skolechat #AIUdd #AIEd

There's a language gap between theory and practice in AI and education. Are you up for the challenge of bridging it? #AIinEd #AIed #AIPioneers https://pontydysgu.eu/2023/11/searching-for-the-ai-bridge-builders/

Wonderful sessions with Digico Global this morning on AI literacy. In my session we explored practical exercises to teach the basics of AI in a simple digestible way, and fostering and maintaining motivation amongst learners.
Any answers to share do let me know...

First in a series of four interviews with experts on AI in Education. This one - 'AI: How do we make explainability open to practitioners and practice?' features Helen Beetham from the UK. https://pontydysgu.eu/2023/10/ai-how-do-we-make-explainability-open-to-practitioners-and-practice/

Started a new little blog series revamping some old Pontydysgu teaching resources with AI in mind https://pontydysgu.eu/2023/10/pioneers-in-practice-teaching-with-and-about-ai/ #AIEd #AIinEd #TaccleAI #AISchools

From Laurence Holt: "Most promising edtech interventions do not scale. In this past year, generative AI’s acceleration has seemed almost magical, but so did television, computers, the internet, and mobile — previous foundational technologies that became part of K-12 education but didn’t necessarily improve it."
