About TEACH AI

Our goal is to establish a regional taskforce, TEACH AI (Teaching Ethics and Academic Honesty with Artificial Intelligence), to address the pedagogical concerns that AI represents, particularly in, but not limited to, technical fields. Members will be invited from area institutions, businesses, and government agencies to discuss the impact of AI, how it can be incorporated and guarded against with regards to instruction, and its ramifications going forward. Initially, membership will be done by invitation and, looking ahead, perhaps by referral. After establishing a mission, the following activities will take place for each meeting:

• Set an agenda.
• Informally discuss current trends in AI
• Establish and/or modify policy recommendations
• Formally document our experience via email, white paper, Slack channel, podcast, and/or newsletter.
