AI in the Hands of Educators: Between Progress and Hype

Setkání pro všechny, koho zajímá AI ve výuce. Součástí setkání budou představení dvou projektů, na kterých letos pracují vyučující CJV: Vytvoření datasetů jako AI knowledge base pro tvorbu kvalitních testů a výukových materiálů na jednotlivých odděleních (Katka Chudová, Veronika Dvořáčková), a Příprava interaktivního výukového modulu podpory využití umělé inteligence jako nástroje pro rozvoj mluveného projevu v cizím jazyce (Katka Gratrix a Radim Herout). V úvodu setkání zazní prezentace studentky Fakulty informatiky Alexandry Havlíkové The AI Revolution is Fake.

Abstrakt - The AI Revolution is Fake (Alexandra Havlíková)
The rise of AI has transformed our world. It has bled into almost every aspect of our lives such as education, work and social media. Many believe humans face the threat of being replaced or even exterminated by this technology.
The most famous form of AI – chatbots such as ChatGPT uses a specific form of artificial intelligence called Large Language Model, which is an algorithm designed to generate human-like text. The algorithm’s exceptional proficiency in using language has made people believe computers have achieved intelligence comparable to that of humans.
However, this is not the case.
Large language models process language, but they do not understand it. They are trained on massive amounts of human-made text, where they learn which words usually appear in the same context. When they generate text, they do so by guessing the words based on previously learned probabilities.
There is nothing in the algorithm’s design that would make it capable of genuinely understanding meaning, being able to reason, or knowing anything at all in the sense that humans do.
This makes large language models unreliable and incapable of reaching human levels of intelligence.
