Interested in things that are both computational and qualitative, especially surrounding AI (which, in case it was unclear, I am critical of). Assistant professor of computer science at Stonehill College, he/him https://samgoree.github.io
It looks like this feature is only available to people with premium acm membership? It's grayed out for me.

As far as I can tell, that means it doesn't even possibly benefit the public, it just increases the risk that researchers unintentionally misrepresent each other's work.

Honestly, Hating the Computer is a critical motivator in developing better software. I do not trust anyone who does not - at least a little bit - Hate the Computer.

If someone holds a fixed mindset, that there are certain skills they are inherently bad at, I'd bet they think AI gives them new capabilities.

If they hold a growth mindset, that being bad at a skill means they need practice, I'd bet they use AI minimally to learn, or avoid it on principle.

This starts to sound a lot like the "fixed vs. growth mindset" idea. While I haven't tested this formally, I feel like I can predict people's perspectives on AI by the way they think about their own intelligence.

From that perspective, the AI in education debate boils down to a question: is college a performance that students do to signal their inherent worth to employers, or is it a process that helps students to build expertise?

I don't want to be a cop and chase after students for academic dishonesty, but I also really can't bring myself to allow students to use these tools to skip the actual work of their homework.

What are the rest of y'all doing out there?

My students and college admin are strongly pro-AI, but most of the smart people I follow online are against it, and I am generally convinced by their arguments (and I don't trust my admin or my students to tell me what to do in the classroom)
