Details
Join us to explore what happens to the education ecosystem when algorithms become central to creating, accessing and validating knowledge.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is an intervention into an already existing complex human system, carrying embedded values, economic incentives and power structures. Yet as AI rapidly integrates into education, the dominant conversation often focuses on technical adoption, policy enforcement or efficiency gains. This talk asks a more foundational question about the education ecosystem itself.
This is a hybrid event. In-person attendance is open to the AUC community (faculty, staff, TAs and students). If you cannot attend in person, you can register to join on Zoom, which is open to the public.
