Questions About This Episode
What is Peak Higher Ed: AI’s Possible Futures with Bryan Alexander about?
Bryan Alexander shares about Peak Higher Ed on episode 604 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast Quotes from the episode “It’s another form of thinking, it’s another form of organizing information and that we have to treat it seriously as such. The computer scientist actually recommends that we think about generative AI as children. These are AIs that have some degree of autonomy and they’re also not very wise in the world yet, and we have to train and rear them up.” – Bryan Alexander “So if AI is bubble, if it turns out to be a bubble and it pops, this might be bad news for the entire economy.” – Bryan Alexander “The problem of how do we actually figure out what people are doing with AI within post secondary education? That’s a really great challenge because if you polled people, they have all kinds of great incentives to not respond accurately.” – Bryan Alexander Resources Peak Higher Ed, by Bryan Alexander: How to Survive the Looming Academic Crisis, by Bryan Alexander Bryan Alexander’s Website Maha Bali’s Blog On the Dangers of Stochastic Parrots: Can Language Models Be Too Big? 🦜, by Emily M.
