My first draft of a slide deck: AI - A Discussion for Education. Feedback is welcome. Trying to get some good discussions happening at my school.

@MrsDi This is an amazing resource. I’ll be sharing this with our middle school team, and post it to our Discord. Thank you for sharing!

@MrsDi thanks for sharing that!
If any of this is useful, this site lists a bunch of AI tools out there: aitoolsdirectory.com/
Stable Diffusion is another interesting (and open source) image generation tool: huggingface.co/spaces/stabilit
This site lists some sample ChatGPT prompts: github.com/f/awesome-chatgpt-p
And @amills has compiled some articles on AI text generators docs.google.com/document/d/1V1

@dougholton @amills Great resources! I added them to the slide deck - it keeps evolving 😆

@MrsDi Could you share who the audience will be?

This looks like for someone who has never tried AI.

@kikobar The audience is for school faculty, admin, etc. And even at that, these slides may be overwhelming. I'm thinking to use them as a loose guide when presenting next week and giving them as a resource for the participants to takeaway.
My opening question, honestly, will be asking them where AI shows up in their daily life. I think they won't expect all the ways it's already there :)

@MrsDi Then the flow of your slides looks good to me.

I'd be prepared for people who already has engaged with AI though.

In my observations, most of tech-savvy adults and almost all youngsters (tech-savvy or not) have some experience playing with ChatGPT (yes, for writing their school essays) and AI image generators (for amusement).

I will be keen to hear about your experience and results. 😊

@kikobar Thanks, this will be interesting. It's been ignored for too long but ChatGPT is bringing the need for discussion right up front! I'm curious to see what they bring to it - I'll let you know 😀

@MrsDi This is great! I just worry when I see the first two on the list of possibilities: using ChatGPT instead of search or a tutor is very tempting (even for me) but it seems like a bad idea to suggest to students since they are not prepared to assess whether the things it's saying are true or not. They're turning to it to know what's true, but it may be fabricating.

@amills AI Literacy may just become the next thing in the pipeline along with Digital Literacy. We are lagging (a lot) in being prepared for all this!

@MrsDi I love the videos interspersed. Thank you for sharing this presentation! The resource collection I'm working on with the Writing Across the Curriculum Collaborative is at wac.colostate.edu/repository/c if you have any suggestions for that...

@amills
Thanks :)
I like the collection of resources you have started and added the link to my slide deck.
