Today on the podcast, I talk with @leonfurze.com about his framework for helping students build the kind of expertise they need to use AI effectively. I had multiple lightbulb moments in this conversation, and I hope you do, too! intentionalteaching.buzzsprout.com/2069949/epis...

Students hate AI and they cannot stop using it. The 2026 US graduation booing wasn't anti-tech noise; it was Gen Z jeering a technology they use daily and blame for a thinner education and narrower careers. New post on why, and what it means for schools. #ArtificialIntelligence #AIEducation#AIEdu#AIEdu

This fifth post in the IYKYK series is a call to action. In order to "lift the ceiling" on teachers' mental models of what AI can do, we need to share as many examples as possible. And not just the obvious examples, but the weird, awkward, slightly broken examples #artificialintelligence #aied

This is part two of a long read reflecting on my PhD journey, which began just before the release of ChatGPT in 2022. The articles look at the ways in which AI technologies, and our attitudes towards them, have shifted and changed in the past four years. #ArtificialIntelligence #AIEducation#AIEdu#AIEdu

In GenAI is Normal Edtech, Leon Furze draws on Arvind Narayanan and Sayash Kapoor's framework of "AI as normal technology" to argue that GenAI is following predictable patterns seen in previous technological shifts. #ArtificialIntelligence #AIEducation#AIEdu#AIEdu #AIInEd #AIInEdu #Podcast

This series discusses GenAI's discoverability and access issues, highlighting how major platforms fragment capabilities through pricing tiers. Free users see limitations as a lack of utility, exacerbating an invisible gap between schools with varied resources. #ArtificialIntelligence #AIEducation

The concept of "AI slop" highlights the imbalance in effort between creators and consumers of content generated by artificial intelligence. As production becomes effortless, the burden shifts to the consumer. #ArtificialIntelligence #AIEducation#AIEdu#AIEdu #AIInEd #AIInEdu

In Processes are More Important than Prompts, Leon Furze argues that "prompt engineering" has become less important as GenAI technologies have matured. #ArtificialIntelligence #AIEducation#AIEdu#AIEdu #AIInEd #AIInEdu #Podcast

The text-box and blinking cursor of GenAI chatbot interfaces is the main thing holding us back from exploring their use. Did you know AI can do... that? #ArtificialIntelligence #AIEducation#AIEdu#AIEdu #AIInEd #AIInEdu #EduSky

Resistance as a Framework for Combating Cognitive Offload The post discusses the necessity of resistance in using AI for education, comparing it to physical training. While generative AI can lead to cognitive laziness, integrating resistance can help maintain learning integrity. The author…

Oi, so I made a thing. It's a simple close reading annotation tool that works by encoding all the data into the URL. No cloud, no logins, no permissions. Just copy/paste/annotate/share. Give it a whirl @ readcloser.com and lmk what you think #english #writing #education

Excellent guidance here from @leonfurze.com and basically what I've been saying from the start. You don't need a specific policy on AI. Look at what you already have in place - technology use agreements, academic integrity, etc.

The Discoverability Problem in GenAI means users are often unaware of capabilities due to poor UX. If the tech won't change, we need new mental models #ArtificialIntelligence #AIEducation#AIEdu#AIEdu #AIInEd #AIInEdu

Your school, university, or business doesn't need an AI policy: you need to figure out what AI adds to the policies you already have. #ArtificialIntelligence #AIEducation#AIEdu#AIEdu #AIInEd #AIInEdu

"I think what we’re going to need, more than anything else, is human experts who are passionate, beyond all reason, about their disciplines. This has to be true of teachers and students alike." Indeed. #skolechat #dkforsk

Great insights. The concept of Metis (aka sailor smarts) is important when we think about differentiation with what AI and humas can each do well. This makes me think of Horizon scanning as well and the shift from 'prediction' to 'awareness of signals'.
