AI and education – making sense of the hype
About this episode
Wayne Holmes (UCL) has been working around AI and education *long* before it became fashionable!
In this episode, Wayne looks back over the recent hype around Chat GPT and generative AI and offers some suggestions of where the field of AI and education might be heading next.
We also get up to speed on how international organisations such as UNESCO, OECD, the EU and Council of Europe are beginning to push distinct agendas around AI and education.
