demonstrated that—if given a fictional research question—the generative artificial intelligence behind ChatGPT can write nearly flawless computer code for a certain syntax-based statistical package commonly used among policy-researcher types
Pretty cool and scary to consider. What risk and benefits are we as humans to reap when it comes to A.I softwares like chat GPT.
automation risk
A synonyms 'buzz word' that correlates with A.I. Risk and more risk, as A.I advances ahead and we struggle to keep up, what risk do we are people have posed to our own stability and independence. I understand the fear of the unknown many of us share to A.I as it is scary. There needs to be established rules that protect the rights of humans and what companies are capable and not capable of doing with the information they are allowed to have access to.
It’s always been important to get these things right, but the arrival of ChatGPT means it’s now more important than ever.
It's arguably the possible zenith of the choices humanity has to make for its future as a whole. We are faced with so many hardships are we going to allow A.i to be another tool that can be used to facilitate harm? Especially those who do not have or can not afford access to the benefits to technology.
Consequently, states, districts, schools, and teachers take different approaches to academic integration, and some approaches are more successful than others.
A constant struggle, technology and trades are constantly unappreciated and people are often told they are not of equal importance compared to academics.
“rigorous and relevant”
A wonderfully eloquent and simple way to put it. If there is no relevance, how can there be felt though individuals and relatable to wide range of people? If there is is no rigour, how will things be persistently at the front lines in the spotlight to receive the spot light toward its cause? Something to ponder indeed as we try to prepare students with the challenges and uncertainty of the future.
automation-resilient, transferable skills
There should be more examples on what these skills are, the generalities the author makes are skipping important information. The skills I think of when I read this are; critical thinking, evaluation, application, constructive feedback, opportunities to be confident when hit with learning curves, and real world application, to name a few. How long will new sub skills technology rapidly creates take to reach the average classroom?
1). Several things stand out.
The several things mentioned are important but we also must question the data and it's reliability. Where data come from? Are the sources reputable? What aspects were the measurements used in this chart? What are the quantifiable.
These skills include things like two-way communication, critical thinking, creativity, planning, management, and problem-solving. These are transferable skills, not technical skills.
Incredibly so, we must consider how these skills and more are go hand in hand with the skilled trades and technology as we are do a large portion of "learning by doing". This kinesensic learning is a huge part of students functionally learning and applying the skills they have learned through their lessons.
How Will AI Automation
"I like bread." That one's for you Bonnie.
worth reaching out to someone who’s actually studied it
Reaching out to resources is imperative in relation to help build a guide in navigating technology and A.I. Again, recognizing it as the tool it is rather than fighting with it will help move us forward with technology, rather than being behind from it. Yes there are logistics that need to be 'ironed out' so to say, but we can cautiously see where it can help us so that we may be able to handle more nuanced details. But we also have to have a system in place that values human labour, a tall ask given humanity's history.
First, average automation risks decrease as education level goes up, largely because jobs requiring bachelor’s degrees
Yet we were all told for so very long to "go to school after you graduate high school, it's the only way to get a good job." As a society I feel as we have weighed the importance of academia, it has tipped the trade down scales out of the public opinion. Now we are facing the ramifications as we can't fill trades potions fast enough and have a large gap in the workforce of skilled trades. We need to put emphasis on both academia but also the skills acquired throughout the trades and technology.
recruiting low-income, disabled, and racially marginalized students into CTE should help diversify cluster pipelines and mitigate tracking.
Versatility is one of our greatest strengths as humans. By embracing this concept and valuing the input these range of resources we have, we can make the things more accessible, and relatable. It is often that in media and social media there is l representation both in culture, race, and disabilities. Due to this bias in content A.I will also have these biases. Whom and where do we make these changes with?

This chart is rather bold, the information abrasive and making me defensive as to where my own knowledge base lies in communications and the arts. It's not as bad as others but it's still not ideal. It encourages me to implement the human aspect of teaching in the spirit of online or in person.
we risk the possibility of, once again, funneling disadvantaged students into low-wage, low-opportunity occupations. CTE’s “dark history” becomes its future.
Yes, this is why it is so incredibly important to promote the trades and the practical life skills they teach. You get paid for your time as an appetence, and paid very well at that. A.i Is a tool yes but we have to teach our students the connections we make to our environment and context of our classrooms that A.I does not know how to interpret. We can not predict the future but we can prepare our students for change and aid their critical thinking skills.
To begin, jobs requiring skills that are difficult to automate with available technologies
Andrew Ng, Co-founder and lead of Google Brain “Robots are not going to replace humans, they are going to make their jobs much more humane. Difficult, demeaning, demanding, dangerous, dull – these are the jobs robots will be taking."
There are certain jobs and skills that can not be replaced, we should be using chat GPT to handle the mundane task humans can automate.
I’ve spent years learning to write such code, to middling ability
Writing code is an art, it's pretty intimidating at first but after you start to understand the foundational concepts it does become easier in my experience.
I’ve been on ChatGPT a lot lately
It's in the news everywhere right now, it feels like it's the biggest 'buzz word' right now
