Four Conversations About Human-Centric AI
I discuss the different conversations, their limits, and what we really need to be talking about.
Scripting languages promise easy automation but prove difficult to learn. Let's stop focusing on simplified syntax and instead focus on understandability and learnability.
R&D or r&d: What’s the Difference?
Research produces generalized knowledge; Development produces generalized functionality. Not all efforts that use research skills or that use development skills are R&D.
Safe AI in Education Needs You
Artificial intelligence is coming to your learners and will raise challenging issues that need experts like you. Learn how you can get involved in AI and Educational Policy.
Securing Seabed Cybersecurity, Emphasizing Intelligence Augmentation
John Arquilla considers the outlook for undersea cyberwar, while Judi Fusco, Pati Ruiz, and Jeremy Roschelle discuss how building equitable applications in education requires an emphasis on augmenting intelligence.
Inclusive Integration of Computing in School Districts: Two Essential Tradeoffs
When integrating computer science and computational thinking in a school district through inclusive learning pathways, school district leaders face challenging tradeoffs regarding ambition and specificity.
AI or Intelligence Augmentation for Education?
Applications of artificial intelligence to education are spreading and intensifying, but we have the acronym backwards. Building ethical, equitable applications in education will require emphasizing intelligence augmentation (IA), not just artificial intelligence (AI).
Computers for Learning: Charisma that Fails to Disrupt?
Two books examine why large-scale learning technology often doesn’t achieve expectations. Technology can improve learning at scale, but charismatic stories about learning technology too often distort the conditions for success.
Why Focus on Technologies for Human Learning?
By choosing human learning as a topic area, computer scientists can contribute to major societal challenges, win grants in additional programs, and tackle new computer science challenges. Three classes of challenges are described.
Shape the Future of Computing
ACM encourages its members to take a direct hand in shaping the future of the association. There are more ways than ever to get involved.
