On Friday I attended the launch event of the AI Literacy initiative of the Digital Society Research Group, aka DISC, at Manchester Metropolitan. I recently joined this research group and spoke briefly at it myself. The event was held in hybrid format with the recordings posted to the DISC YouTube channel.
The “headline” event was a keynote talk by Mark Carrigan. I particularly enjoyed his analysis of the concern in HE at the moment around subversive use of chatbots as a ‘crisis of trust’. I’d not thought about it that before, and I think he’s quite right.
