AI in the Classroom: Tools, Tips, and Cautions

Artificial intelligence systems work by using algorithms and data. Some major limitations of GENAI are unreliable sources. In a recent case, a Vancouver lawyer has been ordered to personally compensate her law team for wasted time, as the cases she submitted in an application were found to be ChatGPT that created fake cases. The article can be found here, Lawyer ordered to pay up for attempting to use ChatGPT ‘hallucinations’ in application.  It’s important for anyone using GenAi to fact check their information before using. GenAI tools are only as good as the information they are trained on. AI tools can generate false, biased, outdated, or completely made-up information. It is up to us, the user, to fact check that information.
