Sarah Hayes

Sarah Hayes - 29th June 2023

Sarah takes us through an academic discussion of human labour, the importance of the language we use to describe encounters with technology, and the need for deeper theories to understand what is going on here beyond the technical.

Sarah's key questions:

  1. How concerned should we be that our cohabiting AI tools like ChatGPT, Bard and Jukebox might replace our roles, or outwit us?
  2. Why is it important to avoid a linguistic separation of technology (such as AI) from people and their positionality in educational policy?
  3. Why draw on longer theories and human narratives to make sense of AI within the broad social project of education, rather than examine educational responses to AI through the lens of computer science?
