讲座摘要：
The emergence of large language models like ChatGPT initially caused tremors in academia because of the possibility that students might use them as a shortcut or to cheat in research papers. As time passed, the larger implications of the technology became clearer, potentially including a fundamental reassessment of the skills that will be needed succeed in the future. That in turn is prompting a re-evaluation of the role of what universities do and what they are.
What is the purpose of a university? Is it to offer a pipeline of workers, especially knowledge workers, to service the economy? Or is it to provide opportunities for young adults to explore and find themselves? Put bluntly, are students products? Or are they customers? Most universities try to do both, but more vocational institutions lean more towards the former; more “elite” institutions toward the latter. All, however, are judged on the employability of their graduates.
Given these considerations, how do we as universities take advantage of AI while minimising or mitigating risks? We need to balance the tremendous opportunities that AI offers, against the risks of immediate harms (eg bias) and longer-term challenges (eg deskilling). We must also consider the risk of misuse vs missed uses — for failing to take advantage is itself a cost.
This presentation will focus on the educational mission of universities, as well as touching on research and administration.
