You know what the biggest problem with pushing all-things-AI is? Wrong direction. I want AI to do my laundry and dishes so that I can do art and writing, not for AI to do my art and writing so that I can do my laundry and dishes.

AI video generation is getting shockingly good. In a couple of years, anyone will be able to create a movie from a smartphone- we're entering a whole new era of film. Here are some of the best examples I've seen:

I told a student last wk that the work they do in the class is for them, not for me. They said, “That kind of blows my mind.” We’ve taught S’s to 🙃learn for the teacher (& points, grades, credits, credentials) to the pt that it rarely occurs to them they cd learn for themselves

Film is a medium that uniquely incorporates elements from all of the others and gives us its own distinct elements.
People learn more about history from films than books. I have long thought that all students should learn how to produce historical films. While writing is still important, it needs to co-exist with the ‘non-text’ media of graphics, colour, lines, animation and sound.

It was bound to happen. We get to live through it.
A ripple effect of today's AI that not enough folks are considering is how much we rely on writing, for better or worse, for assessment: well-written essays get you into college, well-written resumes get you jobs, well-written emails get you promoted, etc. That signal is gone.

We built a custom #AI learning coach for our students. This one draws out personal student interests, makes them think, & helps formulate individualised questions & lines of inquiry. Showed my 15yo who said “it’s like every student has a personal teacher” wesleycollege.edu.au/news-ev…
