So many of the newsletters about AI are based on the intersection of technology and business. So it came as welcome relief to find an edition of AI Supremacy talking about AI, psychology, relationships, adaptation, coping and our self-regulation to live more fulfilling lives as individuals. The edition is based on work by Natalia Cote-Munoz of the Newsletter Artificial Inquiry. Natalia says: “The future of human-AI collaboration is being written right now—not in Silicon Valley conference rooms, but in the daily workflows of neurodivergent people who’ve discovered something remarkable: AI tools designed for general use can remove barriers that traditional […]

Get any group of teachers together and ask them their main concern about AI and the answer will be assessment. Its not really surprising since education systems have built their reputations on the value of assessments, however weak traditional exam systems have been. But of course in vocational education and training in most countries there has been change, with moves towards outcome based curriculum leading to more practical real world assessment exercises. This doesn’t mean vocational teachers don’t have the same concerns over AI and assessment, especially when it comes to assessment of more formal academic learning. In the UK, […]

The AI Cookbook team reviewed 50 articles of literature relating to using AI in migrant education and then gave it to Google Notebook – here’s the AI generated deep dive podcast.

There is an avalanche of blogs, papers. reports and so on over AI in higher education and in schools. There is not so much about vocational education and training. And as for adult education – it has largely been ignored. I suppose one reason may be that adult education provision varies so much in different countries. And another may be that funding for adult educati9on is generally pretty poor. That is why the latest resource kit “Beyond the Buzz: AI in Adult Education” in the EU EPALE electronic platform and newsletter is so welcome. The faeture asks the central question […]

There is a growing conversation about data rights, suggesting that the debate over digital ownership is just beginning. Apart from several well publicised legal cases in the USA over scraped data, in the UK the government has been forced to launch an urgent review, after facing a fierce campaign by musicians and employees in the creative industries. The big tech AI companies have been claiming that scraping data for training Large Language Models represents fair use, even when being explicitly asked not to do so. Now the Mastodon social network, launched in 2016, allowing users to create their own servers […]

Building on the literature review and field work research recently undertaken by the AI Cookbook project, we are now working on an engagement methodology for AI in migrant education. The AI Engagement Methodology for Migrant Education will present an approach to integrating Artificial Intelligence technologies into educational programs supporting migrant and refugee learners. This methodology emerges from the recognition that migrant learners face unique challenges that require specialised, culturally sensitive, and ethically grounded educational interventions enhanced by AI technologies. Developed within the framework of the EU Erasmus+ funded AI Cookbook project, this methodology addresses the critical gap between the rapid […]
