How and in what way Artificial Intelligence can be applied to education

The Artificial Intelligence (AI) It has been present in the daily life of the human being for several years now, however, the latest digital innovations based on this technology have completely surprised more than one person. The difference between human intelligence and AI is that the latter is designed to analyze patterns and make decisions based on data collected.

“AI is replacing some products, processes and results that were previously done by humans, that is, we are creating AI to do certain jobs for us. However, AI is nothing more than a description that it does not operate through a human, but was created by humans and what surprises us today about these applications is their ability to amplify or deepen the essential skills of people” , said Beatriz Arias, director of CoEducation ConsultingCompany specialized in talent development, transition in cultural systems, leadership and positioning.

AI algorithms have long existed on many of the commonly used educational platforms and services. But with the appearance of ChatGGPIn addition to being open to massive use, the intelligence system offers user interaction. Of course, as in any other educational technology, what is central is the framework of employment within an objective. Bearing in mind that human intelligence is the only one capable of articulating that in terms of pedagogical strategy.

“In educational terms, the first educational technology is the conversation that involves an interaction between the teacher and the learner. So, there is a first interaction that is presented as apparently objectified by technology”, Arias explained and added: “Testing, playing, making mistakes and knowing what the social and human role is, is the factor for make sense of the results that artificial intelligence offers us. Those products are not always new knowledge. And this is because the AI ​​works on pre-existing data and information that has been produced at another time. Collect, search, edit and deliver. But new knowledge is provided by a human. That’s the learning process.”

However, at present, ethics on the use related to plagiarism, mashaping of voices and music. For specialists, it is essential to be able to assume an ethical role in the use of technologies, because there is the possibility that legal loopholes may open up, references to the copyright or copyright. A recent case was the musical project AISISan album made entirely with AI programs emulating the British rock band Oasis.

“What artificial intelligence does is take us out of our comfort zone and force us to stop doing mechanical work in order to start occupying other roles and doing other types of work, where we are going to add a different value. Artificial intelligence will never know what to ask nor will it know how I feel about the questions you are asking me. There is something different that the human being can do and a place that they can occupy, that artificial intelligence will add value to it the day we understand what that space is to occupy”, remarked the reference from CoEducation Consulting.

Finally, from Co Education they conclude that: “Definitely, the use of artificial intelligence applying deep learning will modify the life of the human being, but no less than the printing press, machines or nuclear energy. It’s going to be part of the challenge of humanity that we all agree and get the best out of this interaction.”
