“Universities that encourage students to use #ChatGPT? I’m stunned to hear something like that.”

Luc Steels – the “godfather of #AI research in Belgium” –is one of the Belgian signatories of a recent open letter to “stop the uncritical adoption of AI technologies in academia”, initiated by @olivia and @Iris.

I spoke with Steels, computational linguist Katrien Beuls, and computer scientist @wim_v12e, and others, about their resistance against #genAI in academia.

@janwlrvn @olivia @Iris @wim_v12e

this is definitely happening at The University of Oslo, and you see both professors and students using it, some of them just parroting sentences off of ChatGPT or taking pictures of questions and asking the machine to solve the problem for them

@amici @janwlrvn @olivia @wim_v12e I feel we’d end up living in a dystopian sci-fi movie
