Defusing and Decoding AI for Maximum Fulfillment: Dylan Wiliam

The Learning Future Podcast with Louka Parry

How do you safely define 'peak humanity' and what would you consider its main characteristics?

What ingredients make the education, reasoning, rationality, and creativity for an era of fulfilment for humanity; particularly when faced with dramatic and powerful tools such as AI?

Dylan Wiliam is one of the best known educationalists in the world. He’s dedicated his entire career to understanding how to ensure learner outcomes are achieved, especially through the study of formative assessment. Dylan is currently Emeritus Professor of Educational Assessment at the Institute of Education, University of London. He was previously Deputy Director of the Institute, and has held posts at King's College London and Princeton University. He earned his PhD from the University of London in 1993.

We highly recommend one of his recent and many publications about preparing for AI: https://edarxiv.org/372vr/
