AI – let’s sort it out

All of a sudden a new field called generative AI was created. The most well-known company in the field is the OpenAI company with a product called GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer ), but there are similar infrastructure products from other companies such as Google’s LaMDA; Stability.AI; or Midjourney. On top of the basic infrastructure, applications are developed that allow a specific use. Similar to smart phone applications such as navigation, digital books, camera or electronic wallet that create a tool that everyone uses, so the field of AI opens up to endless uses. For example:

>> Digital consultant – generates text on any subject in the world, answers any question, writes software, detects diseases… (like ChatGPT)

>> Image generator – endless images from a sentence that describes the image (e.g. Dall-E), the images that accompany these posts were created by Dall-e-2

>> Content generator – writes content of any length depending on the purpose such as an article, a social network, a script for YouTube… (eg Jasper or CopyAI)

>> Drawing – an application that takes several profile pictures and creates the person’s avatar picture (e.g. LensaAI)

>> Music generator – with the help of a sentence you get original music (for example Riffusion)

>> Trip generator – plans a personal trip according to your preferences such as: place, season, type of trip (for example Trip planner AI)

>> Manipulations on existing images – for example:
>>>> Coloring photos that were originally in black and white (eg Colorize)
>>>> Animate a picture – You connect a picture to the text and a video is created in which the character in the picture says the text (for example Fliki)
>>>> Changing the background for each photo, for example me standing against the background of the Eiffel Tower (for example Green Screen)

I have chosen examples that I think may have an impact on education, that can help the teacher prepare lesson plans, and materials for meeting the students, for the student to prepare assignments, for the teacher to check the assignments, and so on, but there are many more examples, and there will be even more. See a post below called ‘Artificial intelligence potential capabilities in the field of education’.

This post was written in January 2023, I believe that if you read it from February 2023 onward it will already be irrelevant as there will be many more new apps.

Note, currently most applications do not work well in Hebrew, but it will improve.

AI – not in our school

It seems that ChatGPT and similar ones have many advantages for the education system, and despite that, there is a good chance that they will be bypassed by the education system without affecting it.

AI – potential capabilities in the field of education

The field of artificial intelligence is in its infancy, but the capabilities of the platform that are being demonstrated these days foreshadow wonderful potential uses – some of these uses are even suitable for the field of education.

AI – an inevitable technology?

People naturally resist change. The use of technology can be resisted up to a certain limit. Some technologies overcome resistance and are therefore inevitable. Does artificial intelligence have the potential to become inevitable in the education system?

AI – “Why do I need it?”, the teacher asked.

A teacher needs to teach and educate, why does she need to understand AI, when until today all the new technologies have only interfered. The post tries to find positive reasons that will prove that it is worth being involved with this specific technology.

AI – everything is personal (personalization)

It took me decades to understand how I learn best, if only we had a tool that could identify the learning style of our students and help us teach them individually 😊. This is exactly what this post talks about.

AI – what about the students?

For the children starting school now, AI will be the natural thing, and it will not seem strange to them to consult a machine and trust its advice, to stay with it at all hours of the day and treat it like a close friend.

AI and singularity in education

AI is getting better and better, and there is a chance that it will be able to make decisions better than us (even if it will not feel pain, happiness or love). This post explores the point where the machine will be able to teach, in many aspects better than a flesh and blood teacher.

AI – ethics

AI is a pre-trained system that bases its decisions on the available data. If there is a bias within the training database AI could come up with unethical conclusions.

AI – learning Spanish

In the future any translation app will be of a better quality than using a non-native language. So why do I learn English? For the same reason I study history – interest and development of cognitive abilities. In this post I imagine how it will be possible to learn in the future any field.

AI – about privacy

Since I believe that artificial intelligence will only be effective when it knows us personally, the question is how we deal with privacy and information security issues?

AI – should we be afraid?

Changes cause a reaction of rejection and fear, but past experience shows that in the end the demon is not so terrible. In this post we will examine whether artificial intelligence should be feared.

AI – parental control

The temptations today are much more sophisticated, as are the controls. AI will raise the level of sophistication. So what about the parents?

AI – real or a dream ?

In 2004, DARPA (the US Development Agency) launched a competition to create an autonomous car and the results were promising. 20 years have passed, an autonomous car is here but not really. Is it the fate of AI that soon it will change the world, but not really?

AI – business model and education

Does OpenAI pose a real challenge to Google’s business model? In the post I will try to present a solution for Google (and the like) and also help the education system.
