Stephen Downes

Knowledge, Learning, Community

I love the quote in the title, but this article, an interview with John Shawe-Taylor, contains several other gems, including this one: "What we don't want to have is a situation where people have been turned into robots, being run by other robots who are real robots." Well said. He also addresses AI in learning, and no, it's not about content recommendation or predictive analytics, it's much more basic than that: "(AI systems) can inspire excitement in learning that is more available and widespread, so that learning becomes an ongoing part of life rather than people stopping their education after getting a certificate."
