The Impact of Generative AI on Education: Potential and Need for Proof
Generative Artificial Intelligence May Help Teachers. Does It Work for Students? The 74
McCormick discusses the impact of generative artificial intelligence (genAI) on education. While it has the potential to save teachers time and improve professional development, its effects on student learning are still unclear. Early studies suggest small positive impacts on teaching quality, but more rigorous evidence is needed. The use of genAI tools in classrooms calls for demand for proof of improvement in student outcomes and ensuring they do not unintentionally harm students. McCormick urges rigorous evaluation before these technologies become pervasive.
Formation of Dataset Providers Alliance Aiming to Standardize Licensing for AI and ML Datasets
New trade body wants to license training data for AI use CIO
The Dataset Providers Alliance (DPA) comprising seven companies aims to standardize licensing of intellectual property for AI and ML datasets, advocating for content creators' rights. As AI companies face disputes over unauthorized content use, legislation like the NO FAKES Act and Generative AI Copyright Disclosure Act have been introduced. The DPA has the potential to support these regulations, although compliance may require operational adjustments. Multinational companies face challenges due to regulatory diversity. AI security and governance leaders should develop risk mitigation frameworks, and enterprises are urged to prioritize licensed data from compliant providers to enhance operational integrity and build trust.
