The rise of AI in education makes us ask fundamental questions about ourselves. What is human nature, and what is education? In this series with Teachers College doctoral students Ahmed Almadlouh and Jensen Okimoto, we will investigate the nature of AI and how learning shapes us.
The final session will read Shannon Vallor's The AI Mirror: How to Reclaim our Humanity in an Age of Machine Thinking, a more hopeful contemporary work.
On Wednesday, November 18, at 12 PM, join Ahmed Almadlouh and Jensen Okimoto (Columbia) for this final lunch session, reading Shannon Vallor’s The AI Mirror: How to Reclaim our Humanity in an Age of Machine Thinking.
