Generated with Bing AI ∙ October 11, 2023 The Quick Details: “ChatGPT” was trained on a large dataset of billions of publicly available web pages. Initially on material through September 2021… most GenAI technologies can now access the internet for more up-to-date information.  LLMs use a deep learning model to produce human-like text. They predict the next word(s) in a sequence based on the patterns learned from the large amount of data used during the training process.  More than a few Concerns Inaccuracies Discriminatory outcomes Embedded or inserted bias Misuse: fraud, deception, intended harm Furthering inequities Privacy violations Data exploitation Image created by Alexandra_Koch from Pixabay https://science.abainternational.org/2024/01/12/6836/ Using AI in our Work… 11  IMPORTANT!

While this isn't inherently biased, it's important to ensure that such representations are balanced with critical perspectives or limitations of his work, if any. Research Evidence: The statement about "over 50 years of research" doesn’t provide context regarding the nature of this research (e.g., limitations, contrary findings, or the diversity of educational contexts). AI As A Personal Editor EXAMPLE: I am a therapist interested in communicating effectively in difficult conversations. Please create a 4-week study plan that: 1. Identifies weekly key concepts. 2. Provides scenarios as learning activities. 3. Recommends the best resources for learning these concepts.

How might we use AI in our work? ai-generated-8273243_1280 by GenerativeStockAI from Pixabay  Further Considerations for AI Use Purpose & Alignment: Can AI help us achieve our goals? How? How will its use fit with existing policies? Awareness & Safety: What are the benefits and risks of using AI? How do we ensure safety? Accessibility: How can we promote equity and fairness? Knowledge: How can we advance AI Literacy? How can we regularly assess Ai’s impact? How can humans stay in the loop?
