Getting Smart, the book turned education and “learning design” consulting company, recently released a report on the influence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education and professional development. The report, titled “Ask About AI: The Future of Work and Learning,” is part of a campaign to have a broader and more inclusive discussion on the matter. Perhaps the best contribution of AI to education, the report concludes, is a change in the “innovation mindsets” of people and organizations, where an increased focus on “Competency-based systems” is likely. While we can expect the presence of AI to be an overall positive for all in the long term, a transition period is seemingly overdue, where the level of positive impact can be dampened by furthering prevailing social and geographical disparities. “Massive dislocations” and “widening income gaps” are challenges whose effects could come close to “existential threats.”
