Uniac - February 2024

51 Virtual Brochure – February 2024 Keeping a finger on the pulse Here are some ways that higher education providers can get the most out of AI, while limiting the associated risks: 1. Use AI for good. AI can be used to dramatically improve the staff and student experience, and to make higher education more accessible. For example, AI can be used to personalise learning, to automate tasks, and to provide support services. 2. Be transparent about how AI is used. Higher education providers should be clear about how they are using AI and should make sure that students and faculty understand how AI works / how it is being used. 3. Protect student privacy. AI systems can collect a lot of data about students, so it is important to protect student privacy. Providers should have strong privacy policies in place and should make sure that students understand how their data will be used. 4. Monitor the use of AI. Providers should monitor the use of AI to ensure that it is being used in a responsible way. For example, AI should not be used to discriminate against students, make decisions that could cause harm, and should not be used to elicit academic dishonesty. 5. Be prepared for the future. AI is a rapidly evolving field, so it is important for providers to be prepared. We can help GPT-3 and LaMDA were used in the initial draft of this briefing paper, demonstrating a potential use case for AI language models in the sector. We can help provide insight across your institution where these may be of use, and how they would be best implemented. Paddy Marshall - Associate Director - pmarshall@uniac.co.uk
