Main Types of AI 🗣️ Generative AI – Creates text or media (ChatGPT, Gemini) 💻 Specialized AI – Focused tools for writing or coding (Grammarly, Copilot) 🎨 Creative AI – Generated art, photos, and videos (Firefly, Sora) 📊 Analytical AI – Evaluates data and models solutions (Tableau, Wolfram Alpha) 📎 Embedded AI – Integrated features that suggest improvements (Google Docs) Academic Integrity Do use to: practice skills personalize learning spellcheck and check grammar Generate ideas Further understanding Don’t Use AI to: Replace learning and critical thinking Cheat on exams and assignments Plagiazing others work Replace your own work Create artificial artwork Bypass plagiarizing software Look out for: - Accuracy - Sources - Bias - Manipulative language - Logical consistency - Overreliance To Eliminate issues: ask where the AI is getting its information from verify that the source is a reliable one cross check what information AI provides you with reliable and scholarly sources from institutions you can trust Safety Tips AI isn’t always right — accuracy doesn’t mean truth. Double-check facts with trusted, scholarly sources. Ask for sources if something seems off or incomplete. Protect your privacy — don’t share personal info or grant unnecessary app permissions. Ethics Environmental Impact → AI data centers currently consume about 4% of U.S. electricity, expected to rise to 7–12% Psychological Effects → People become emotionally attached to AIs, leading to relationship issues and, in extreme cases, self-harm. Data Bias → AI learns from existing data, which can reinforce discrimination, for example, in job applications. Privacy & Accountability → AI tools collect vast personal data, raising risks of breaches and unclear responsibility when harm occurs. Effects of AI Present: Students can learn faster and study independently; however, over reliance on AI can weaken critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Professors are unable to consistently detect AI, raising concerns about academic honesty. Short term: Schools develop ethical AI use policies and detection tools, professors shift towards assessments that ensure genuine learning and the focus is returns to active participation and human connection in education. Long term:AI can personalize learning, strengthen critical thinking, and identify weaknesses. Future students will need both AI literacy and ethical awareness.
