I appreciate these ideas and approaches from Katarzyna and Rita. I do think that someone is going to want to be sure that the AI models\/platforms\/tools are given up-to-date information and updated instructions &#8212; i.e., any new procedures, steps to take, etc. Perhaps I&#8217;m missing the boat here, but an internal AI platform is going to need to have access to up-to-date information and instructions.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OpenAI&#8217;s Atlas: the End of Online Learning\u2014or Just the Beginning? &#8212; from drphilippahardman.substack.com by Dr. Philippa Hardman My take is this: in all of the anxiety lies a crucial and long-overdue opportunity to deliver better learning experiences.
