New York public schools are introducing an initiative to encourage and support teachers and students who study and research artificial intelligence technology (AI). According to the head of the New York public schools David Banks for Chalkbeat, this step is a response to the general concern of educators about potential risks and abuse in the field of AI.
The report reports that at the beginning of this year, Chatbot based on artificial intelligence Chatgpt was temporarily included in the list of websites, which needed the consent of pedagogical staff and students. More than a thousand reviews received education authorities from workers and students who expressed their fears and benefits of using AI technology in education.
Some teachers are already coming in computer science lessons using artificial intelligence as part of the computer science initiative for all. One examples are the Quins Secondary School, where students discuss the ethical aspects of the AI, as well as study the accuracy of Chatgpt's answers, asking him a variety of issues.
The head of the school district, David Banks, noted that the initial caution in education in education is justified, but now it is turning into an objective study of the capabilities and risks of this new technology. Teachers will be assumed that a set of resources for lessons and discussions about the CIs in their classes will be available, in order to prepare students for work in the modern world.
