卡罗莱纳大学的教师是如何使用人工智能的
They are making sure students are literate in artificial intelligence and embracing it in their own teaching and re太阳城娱乐城.
The concept of artificial intelligence has been around since antiquity. Sacred statues in Egypt were believed to be imbued with real minds and could answer any questions put to them.
如今，我们有了谷歌.
我们也有流媒体服务, businesses and social media platforms that use AI to track user behavior to provide personalized content and advertisements. 健康 apps analyze biometric data to give insights for a fit lifestyle. Navigation systems use real-time and historical traffic patterns and predictive analytics to provide route recommendations.
What is different today is the surge in the amount of data, computational power 和 public release of generative AI platforms like ChatGPT or Microsoft Copilot. 在人工智能的世界里, 数据越多, 这些模型和算法变得越健壮.
This has led to an exponential increase in how this technology could be used. 对一些人来说，道德问题也同样重要. 数据隐私问题, 结构性偏见, 版权, plagiarism and disinformation are all hot topics in the AI ethical debate.
While some view the rise of AI as a threat, others see its potential in learning. 后者之一是 丹尼尔•安德森, professor in the 文理学院’ English and comparative literature department and director of 卡罗莱纳数字人文/数字创新实验室 和 UNC编写程序. In his re太阳城娱乐城, Anderson studies the intersection of computers and writing.
去年夏天, Anderson allowed English composition students to use generative AI platforms throughout the course and found mixed results. 当头脑风暴的主题想法, identifying key words or summarizing verified documents, 人工智能很有帮助. But when looking for a literature review with the best 10 sources, 聊天机器人生成了错误的引用, 什么叫人工智能幻觉.
These hallucinations taught students a valuable lesson in verification.
“A lot of what I hoped to see, as a teacher, happened,” said Anderson. “通过花时间参加这些活动, students were able to have the lightbulb go off for themselves.”
基于这些经验，并得到了 北卡大学数据科学与社会学院在美国，安德森建立了培训模块，作为该项目的一部分 卡罗莱纳人工智能素养 initiative to help students learn how to use these platforms responsibly and effectively.
Anderson’s goal is to ensure that all Carolina students become AI literate.
“并不是所有的学生都需要对人工智能有深入的了解, but they should know it’s trained on data and that data can come with limitations and affordances,他说. “Your bank is going to be using AI; your doctor is going to be using it. It’s useful to have a sense of how this technology is mediating your life.”
Many more re太阳城娱乐城ers and scholars at UNC-Chapel Hill are embracing AI in their work:
- Junier奥利瓦, an assistant professor with appointments in the computer science department 和 School of 数据科学与社会, 专注于改进机器学习模型, a type of AI that learns from data in order to make predictions.
- 卡宾琼斯, a professor in the biology and genetics departments and in the UNC School of 医学’s integrative program for biological and genome sciences, investigates histones 和ir role in gene expression.
- Gedas Bertasius, assistant professor in the computer science department, works on video understanding and computer vision technologies.
- 亚当·基弗, assistant professor in the exercise and sport science department, core faculty member in the Matthew Gfeller Center and co-director of the STAR Heel Performance Lab, 使用人工智能来预测运动员的表现, 伤害预防和康复.
