1.4 Responsible Use of AI

Take Home message

Responsibility is a design task, not a control task. Detection of AI does not work properly. And AI detection is unfair when it fails. There is a risk of mistakenly identifying answers as AI-generated, or vice versa. Several European countries have already ruled out these tools. Confident invention and inherited bias follow from how these systems are built and judged. The consequence should be: teach them rather than waiting for a fix.  The working principle is: think first, then AI. Making people commit to their own answer beats explaining the machine; building limits into the software beats banning it. Prompts alone don't hold. A chatbot tasked with acting as a tutor tends to drift back to giving answers, which makes reliable limits a purchase question. Amplification is the default; equalisation must be built from access, design and scaffolding together — and the scarcest of the three is a trained teacher.{{rev}} Inclusion is the clearest win — and where teachers themselves see the strongest case.
