A new international group focused on shaping the way AI is used in HE around the world has been established from a base in Singapore, claiming that AI is one of the greatest challenges facing the sector in centuries.
Former NSW Govt Advisor Danny Bielik has launched the DEC in Singapore, drawing together 20 founding members from around the world including Melbourne Business School and Uni WA.
“It’s the blind spots that often cause the most change,” Mr Bielik said.
“Already governments are creating regulations and legislation for the use of AI in education. They don’t want to be caught out like they were for social media.”
The group aims to share best practice and assist members in navigating change – part of a snowballing movement creating a dramatically new vision for HE in the wake of the spectacular growth in AI usage across the globe.
