Changing ICT education in a post-AI world
In applied research and thus education, we shape new technologies and solutions. In the case of artificial intelligence (AI), the way we shape research and education is itself subject to change. Nowhere is this more palpable than in ICT education itself. This is what Erdinç Saçan talks about with teacher-researcher Coen Crombach in a new episode of AI Garage.
Tool for learning
AI is of course incredibly useful and will take a lot of work off your hands, but it cannot do anything alone observes Crombach. We will continue to depend on people who can fathom problems and come up with solutions. AI will probably become an important tool in this, but it will not take away the need for skilled people. What it does mean is that the bar may have to be raised, now that every student can generate a portfolio with ChatGPT.
Changing profession
Automation instils fear, but it has done so since Carl Benz took away the horses in front of a carriage and replaced steam manpower in factories. Crombach does admit that any new technology makes occupations obsolete. That too is nothing new. Yet it reinforces the need to train agile and self-learning professionals; ICT experts who are never done learning, reinventing how they make technology work for us.
Hear more about this in the 16th episode of AI Garage with Erdinç Saçan and Coen Crombach.
