Hey, Friend,
Zooming in on one topic … A complex topic. Actually … zooming out. Trying to grasp the big picture. At least to get an idea. Artificial intelligence. What do we need to think about when we think about AI?
Let’s make a list. It’s the internet, why not add another list? What am I thinking about when I think about generative artificial intelligence? It already took a few posts to get a little closer to this phenomenon of AI. And I am mostly interested in AI in language education.
- This machine is impressive and frightening …
How does GenAI work? What’s under the hood? - This came out of the blue and all too sudden …
Where did GenAI come from? Why now? How come it’s so big? - The machine is my servant — the machine is taking over …
What happens when we use it? How do we interact with it? - I can achieve so much more — the machine is taking my job away …
What are the long-term effects? And what happens in the short term? - The power of human reason — robot power …
To what should we pay attention and what can we ignore?
This will take a couple more posts … and some time to think.
