Research Sheds Light on the Evolving State of AI

#artificialintelligence

The capabilities of current AI systems go far beyond anything available only a few years ago, and levels of disruption are likely to skyrocket. How will AI transform jobs? And how will society respond? There have been a lot of studies on the subject recently. Let's unpack some of the findings.


The Evolving State of AI-Supplemented Computer-Assisted Instruction

#artificialintelligence

The traditional CAI Computer-Assisted Instruction) system depends on the instructors who provide the course material and decide the criteria of evaluation for the students. The advanced versions we have these days have a'reactive learning environment' – where students are actively engaged in their online learning programs. The latter systems employ AI (Artificial Intelligence) tools and techniques to take students' interests and performance factors into account and proceed with tutorial dialogues accordingly. Hence, they are known as AICAI (Artificial Intelligence Computer-Assisted Instruction) System), or simply ICAI for intelligent CAI. Such AICAIs include a domain expert component (which knows all about the topic that is being taught), a student model that can analyze the responses of the learners and decode their knowledge levels as well as misconceptions, and a component which contains information on appropriate teaching strategies in different scenarios.
