44. An AI Czar's Perspective on AI's Role in Education

The emergence of AI has brought with it a tsunami of new AI tools and products, all which can bring efficiencies to one off tasks we engage in our daily lives.

This can be a great initial step, but the long term strategy of educational institutions cannot be to purchase 10 new AI powered products in the spirit of transforming their school.

Transforming education will require a foundational vision for the educational experience, not just an AI policy on how to use AI tools for one-off use cases.

What does this vision look like? As we begin to paint a comprehensive vision for the role of AI across education - in classrooms, offices, hallways, and backpacks across the world - what are we driving towards?

The recently named Chief AI Officer at Sacramento State, Dr. Sasha Sidorkin, aka the AI Czar, and I grapple with elements of these questions.
