I am finding it really helpful for educators to have the chance to talk to each other & learn together about . My goal is to give you that opportunity as we look at how this works & what we can do with it as educators. Curiosity over fear!

Interesting items to ponder...

Who defines when an idea is 'stupid'?
And if that idea is just along the continuum of design to a better end result, who is to say the starting idea is not worth pursuing?

Because personally, I would purchase guacamole from a drone right now if I could - take my money.

screenshot of the start of a Twitter thread where author writes: "We tend to view AI ethics & alignment as about making sure AI doesn't do terrible things. Bing (accidentally?) takes ethics further. The AI refuses to let you do dumb things. Like it won't create a business plan for my drone-based guacamole delivery idea & tries to distract me."

"The tricky part is that ChatGPT and chatbots like it are designed to make use of a very influential human cognitive bias that we all have: the tendency to view things which are not people as people or at least as being like people"
Yes yes yes yes
Absolutely agree with Bret Devereaux's very sensible post

Mic-drop moment from Scott McLeod at the EdTechTeacher webinar last night - in Education

@edutooters
youtube.com/live/JvaN4iViVfE?f

Quote from Scott McLeod “...I think the essence of the struggle right now is that ChatGPT, like other tools in the past, expose the frailty of our schooling model, the brittleness of our ability to change, and our inability to move beyond factual recall to proceed education into something more relevant and meaningful for kids, society, future needs, life success, etc.”

Do you, like me, peek at what a presenter has pinned for extensions?

Here is my updated list of what I have pinned: bit.ly/FebChrome23

No endorsements, just sharing explorations.

@edutooters

Image of a slide that has a partial screenshot of a Google Chrome browser window - the extension icons are all shown with arrows to each one with the names of what each Chrome extension is.

Trying to get the issue of academic misconduct right leads to a lot questioning.

I just posted an analysis on generated (AI) writing over at :
sentientsyllabus.substack.com/

Mey key point is that we need a principled and deep understanding of academic integrity, and that can be provided by a commitment to truth. Accordingly the source of misconduct is "deceit", and not the nature of the text itself. We need to keep in mind however, that we are unlikely to be able to detect all such deceit. Therefore we need to build a collaborative framework of education. Creating an academic work ought to be as enjoyable as writing your own diary.

I have to say, CatGPT is scarily accurate. Machine learning has come a long way.

Interesting to see policies begin to take shape across platforms -

Use of ChatGPT generated text for content on Stack Overflow is temporarily banned.

This is a temporary policy intended to slow down the influx of answers and other content created with ChatGPT. What the final policy will be regarding the use of this and other similar tools is something that will need to be discussed with Stack Overflow staff and, quite likely, here on Meta Stack Overflow.

Overall, because the average rate of getting correct answers from ChatGPT is too low, the posting of answers created by ChatGPT is substantially harmful to the site and to users who are asking and looking for correct answers.
