What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)? • Definition: AI involves creating computer systems that can perform tasks typically requiring human intelligence. These include learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language understanding. • Examples in Everyday Life: From personal assistants like Siri and Alexa to more complex applications like predictive analytics in healthcare and autonomous driving. Two Types Artificial Intelligence (AI) • Generative AI: refers to a type of artificial intelligence technology that can generate new content, such as text, images, music, and videos. It leverages advanced algorithms to understand and replicate patterns from existing data, allowing it to create original outputs that mimic human-like creativity. Examples include models that can write like a human, generate realistic images from textual descriptions, or compose music. • Large Language Models: are a subset of Generative AI specifically designed to understand and generate human language. These models are trained on vast amounts of text data, which enable them to perform a variety of language-based tasks such as translation, summarization, answering questions, and even engaging in conversation. Notable examples include OpenAI's ChatGPT, Google Bard, and Microsoft Bing. AI in Education? • Enhancing Learning: AI can personalise learning based on individual student needs by adapting materials and pacing. • Automating Tasks: AI can automate administrative tasks like lesson planning and scheduling, allowing educators more time to focus on teaching and building relationships. Ethical Considerations? • Privacy and Security: Ensuring student data is protected and not misused. • Bias and Fairness: Developing AI systems that provide equal opportunities for all students and do not inherit or amplify biases. • Transparency and Accountability: Making AI decisions in education understandable and subject to checks and balances.
