This video was full of needed and excellent information and I felt it was so very nonchalant in its presentation. It went so quickly almost brushing over all the pitfalls of AI. True, students are using it and going to keep using it but to thinks that we really can stop their use by just informing them on the pitfalls of data privacy, I think is a big ask. Kids post stuff all the time without even a thought to who see it or data they may have inadvertently shared. This said, as educators we need to certainly and consistently remind student about this fact. Beyond this, I think it is good to run things by the IT department in our school. They should also know about FERPA and COPPA and parent restriction capabilities, etc. If there are products out there that are set for educational use the, yes, teachers and students should learn to use them responsibly.AI mistakes, hallucinations (AI fiction) and bias should also be addressed by following up with other reliable sources of information. Sometimes just by using a couple of different search engines you can confirm or dispel bad information. It is important to keep reminding ourselves that mistakes will be unavoidable and that if something sound peculiar there is likely a reason for that. Finally, it is important to address as best we can, any bias that may turn up as well. This can be unfair This results from the data that they are trained on. These repeatable errors based on the algorithm may lead to these unjust outcomes. Like preferring one group over another or when it consistently errors in a direction causing skewed conclusions. Like other AI mistakes, other sources must be used to confirm the facts form the fiction. In fact, it was noted that Chat GPT has a left leaning bias. and when detectors are used nonnative speakers, they are almost always flagged as AI made. It is best to view bias errors as another kind of mistake that AI makes and to remind students that AI is not personal but only trying to glean information based on what it has been trained on. Moreover, knowing your students and using performance-based instruction will play a better part in knowing what your students ultimately produce and understand than trying to use any kind of AI detector.
