Observatorio IA - artículo

Seguro que ya habrás escuchado hablar de Midjourney y probablemente sepas que es una de las nuevas herramientas de inteligencia artificial que más impacto está teniendo en la manera en que podemos crear materiales visuales. Mediante órdenes de texto, Midjourney puede generar todo tipo de imágenes, desde ilustraciones abstractas hasta representaciones realistas de personas, objetos y escenas. Como se ve, esta tecnología ofrece un gran potencial para que los profesores de idiomas creemos materiales más atractivos y relevantes para nuestras clases de español.
Que los humanos introducimos nuestros sesgos en los algoritmos no es ninguna novedad y es una de las principales fuentes de preocupación sobre estas tecnologías. Lo que no sabíamos hasta ahora es que el proceso puede suceder a la inversa: la máquina también puede contagiarnos a nosotros sus errores sistemáticos y estos se pueden perpetuar. Es lo que concluyen las investigadoras españolas Lucía Vicente y Helena Matute después de realizar una serie de experimentos cuyos resultados publican este martes en la revista Scientific Reports. 
This week, I attended a round table discussion at the House of Commons with politicians and experts from across the education sector to feed into UK policy on AI in Higher Education. Unsurprisingly, one of the key areas of concern and discussion was the impact of AI on academic integrity: in a world where AI can write an essay, what does AI mean for what we assess and how we assess it? And how do we respond in the short term? In this week’s blog post I’ll summarise the discussion and share what we agreed would be the most likely new model of assessment in HE in the post-AI world.
MLA Style Center MLA (17/03/2023)
The MLA’s method for citing sources uses a template of core elements—standardized criteria that writers can use to evaluate sources and create works-cited-list entries based on that evaluation. That new technologies like ChatGPT emerge is a key reason why the MLA has adopted this approach to citation—to give writers flexibility to apply the style when they encounter new types of sources. In what follows, we offer recommendations for citing generative AI, defined as a tool that “can analyze or summarize content from a huge set of information, including web pages, books and other writing available on the internet, and use that data to create original new content” (Weed).

In this post, I discuss situations where students and researchers use ChatGPT to create text and to facilitate their research, not to write the full text of their paper or manuscript. We know instructors have differing opinions about how or even whether students should use ChatGPT, and we’ll be continuing to collect feedback about instructor and student questions. As always, defer to instructor guidelines when writing student papers. For more about guidelines and policies about student and author use of ChatGPT, see the last section of this post.
Recently, I’ve been doing a lot of work helping businesses to explore how to integrate AI to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of their organisations, especially their HR and L&D teams. Fear of AI hallucinations along with concerns for data privacy means that most business leaders in start with the assumption that the power and potential of AI lies in building bespoke LLMs - i.e. building an internal search + retrieve engine based on internal data using a chat interface.
