Head space course on Generative AI for Academics is available
The introduction of generative AI into our workflows presents both an exciting opportunity and a significant challenge. However, because of the unique nature of large language models, it can be difficult to know exactly how to integrate them into our existing areas of practice. The aim of the course is to help academics develop a…

Developing AI literacy in professional education
Developing AI literacy in students shouldn’t rely on mandatory training. Instead, I suggest using AI to create personalised learning programmes for students that help them address real-world problems that are important to them. I give an example of preparing for clinical placement using generative AI. By having students interact with AI to build unique plans…

Generative AI and the cognitive apprenticeship model for developing clinical reasoning
This post explores how generative AI can support cognitive apprenticeship in developing clinical reasoning skills. Using a structured approach, I show how AI can enhance various aspects of learning, from providing domain knowledge to simulating patient scenarios, ultimately creating a comprehensive framework for AI-assisted clinical education.

Midjourney has a new web editor and expands access to its website
https://the-decoder.com/midjourney-has-a-new-web-editor-and-expanded-access-to-its-website/ Midjourney has released a new web editor that lets users edit their AI-generated images directly in the browser. The editor combines key features like “Reframe,” “Repaint,” “Vary Region,” “Pan,” and “Zoom” in a single interface. I haven’t used Midjourney in forever because you had to use it in Discord and that always felt awkward…

I disagree. Beyond ’10 myths’ of AI in education
In this post, I critique a recent paper on AI myths in education, arguing that it presents unfounded ‘myths’ without evidence and uses outdated studies to support its claims. The author’s tendency to conflate different AI concepts is also disappointing and unhelpful, and the article fails to clarify important ideas about AI in education.

AI and the future of physiotherapy education – IFOMPT panel discussion
AI has the potential to revolutionise traditional approaches to physiotherapy education. While it enhances access to current research and provides intelligent tutoring, concerns about critical thinking and ethics arise. Educators are developing strategies to integrate AI effectively, focusing on balancing technological advancements with crucial skill development in physiotherapy education.

Large Language Models as Moral Experts?
The general consensus among most people has been that human values will forever be the domain of human beings, and not AI. This paper seems to suggest that moral judgement may not be off-limits to machines after all.
