I wonder what are considered successful approaches and what and who qualifies them to be successful?

existing research indicates
Is the existing research being used relevant or missing parts? Is there an opportunity to learn more with further research? If so, how would this affect the current results?
hand-wringing about automation and the implications for society.
There are authors who have written entire books using chat GPT. How do you feel about purchasing a book and reading it, not realizing it has been written by AI?
In theory, students in these programs should be better prepared for automation
"students in these programs"? I feel like everyone should evaluate how AI either directly or indirectly affects their careers and/or lives. Good or unfavourable!
Can contemporary CTE shield students against risks posed by automation? Absolutely. In theory, CTE students should be better prepared for automation.
Absolutely, if you are teaching students methods of growing, adapting, flexibility, exploring new technologies within or out of your expertise...many avenues to consider.
once again, funneling disadvantaged students into low-wage, low-opportunity occupations. CTE’s “dark history” becomes its future.
This also reminds me of our readings where a lot of these intelligences also come or eventually come out with paid versions where there will be a large population unable to afford it, therefore having an automatic disadvantage to some of there peers.
There’s also little accountability for academic integration baked into federal policy. Consequently, states, districts, schools, and teachers take different approaches to academic integration, and some approaches are more successful than others.
I wonder when we will see clearer guidelines from governments and school boards on the use of chat GPT and the like and I am curious to what their stances will be.
1). Several things stand out.
I haven't looked the sources of this information in detail yet, but I feel it might not be an accurate representation of the trades. For instance Hospitality and tourism, not me feeling personally targeted by this chart, but all jokes aside... was the knowledge gathered among many different jobs in the industry or solely the fast food industry?
To what degree can automation affect the career outcomes of graduates of CTE programs?
It will affect many careers no doubt, however, those same careers can also change how they adapt. For instance marketing is a field hugely being affected by AI at the moment. What many are doing are instead of promoting the service of "creating content for your business" they are instead promoting the service of "managing your content" therefore taking advantage of AI instead.
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, like myself.
I mentioned Google in one of my replies and talking about it here again because I really feel this is what's happening right now. Think back to when google was first introduced. Mind you Chat GPT is not entirely the same entity but our reaction as a population was very similar. People were skeptical, it wasn't "allowed" to be used in school, and it was feared at what it might become. New technologies will never stop emerging. We have to continue to adapt.
Career and technical education courses and programs need to equip students with both
I agree with this. It is similar to many professions. You may have heard the saying "just because you can cook, doesn't mean you should open a restaurant". A good restaurant is much more than just good food, business sense, service, atmosphere, design, music, etc. are just a few items that make up a restaurant. Same goes for other career avenues.
This has particular salience given that concerns about the cost of college have prompted parents and policymakers to embrace career and technical education programs, which prepare students for the workforce.
I don't believe this is necessarily the key reason as to the shift to tech ed programs. There is also a shortage of skilled trades which could also be one of many reasons there is now a push and promotion for it.
