Sessions · AI literacy and big questions
Your students already use AI
Most students have used ChatGPT for homework, but very few have been shown how it comes up with an answer or how to tell when it's wrong. In this session they see how a chatbot works, try to catch it making mistakes, and debate what it means for school and work.
