Tom Vander Ark, Forbes; Let's Talk About AI Ethics; We're On A Deadline
"In Pittsburgh, the Montour School District launched America's First Public School AI Program.
Justin Aglio, director of academic
achievement and innovation, is working with MIT on an open source middle
school AI Ethics Curriculum that will develop students’ ethical
thinking abilities in the domain of artificial intelligence. In addition
to learning computer science fundamentals, students will also learn how
professions such as designers, social scientists, or philosophers
contribute to the ethical design of AI systems.”
AI4ALL is creating a national network of university computer science departments connecting with high school students.
Why secondary schools as the hub of
community conversations? Every secondary school student should be
studying the implications of AI--it’s the most important change force
that will shape their careers, social networks, and communities. And
what better way to learn than to host conversations that explore what’s
going on, what it means, and how to prepare (see a SXSWedu conversation using this framework)?
It’s time to #AskAboutAI. It’s time
for secondary schools to become the hub of community conversations about
the ethics and opportunities of our time. We’re on a deadline."
