As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to advance, educators are rapidly being presented with opportunities and challenges for which they are largely unprepared. The release of ChatGPT, a large language model trained by OpenAI, caught many educators off-guard, and more powerful iterations of generative AI language technologies are expected to follow soon. With the ability to understand natural language and respond in real-time, generative AI has the potential to revolutionize the way we approach assessments and learning.

The Schwartz Reisman Institute for Technology and Society and the Centre for Ethics at the University of Toronto are co-hosting a symposium that will bring together leading researchers, educators, and technologists to explore the future of education and assessment in the age of generative AI. Through a series of presentations and a panel discussion, this event will examine the implications of these new technologies for how educators approach assessments and promote learning in a variety of contexts.

Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the potential of generative AI in education and how these changes push us to re-examine the meaning and value of learning. Participants will also have the opportunity to engage in thoughtful discussions and exchange ideas with other professionals in the field.

Join us for this exciting event and be part of the conversation about the future of education in the era of generative AI. Registration is free and open to all.
