My Best Professor Was an AI Professor : A Reflective Possibility from 2030 students

Abstract

We consider how universities can best harness the power of AI to revolutionize learning, and specifically address if AI professors can successfully serve students. As we now live in an era where it has been increasing more difficult for humans to discern what works are human-generated from those that are computer-generated, it is incumbent upon universities to evaluate the possibility of AI professors. We will facilitate a lively discussion on AI’s ability to take on the role of a teacher. We seek participants’ help in evaluating AI’s capacity to create appropriate classroom content; deliver high-quality learning through engaging presentation; and assess student learning through assignments, projects, and examinations. The end goal is to gain an understanding of the strengths and limitations of artificial intelligence as anyone’s favorite professor.
