Defining the News
This photo taken on April 9, 2024 shows students using virtual reality headsets in a class at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology , in Hong Kong. Slipping on headsets, students at a Hong Kong university were transported to a pavilion above the clouds to hear Albert Einstein expound on game theory—part of a course deploying"AI lecturers" in the classroom.
Professor Pan Hui, the project lead for HKUST’s AI project, is not worried about being replaced by the tech and believes it can actually help ease what he described as a global shortage of teachers. This is mixed with in-person teaching by Hui, who says the system frees human lecturers from the “more tedious” parts of their job.
While initially hesitant, most Hong Kong universities last year allowed students to use AI to degrees that vary from course to course. There could be a future where AI teachers surpass humans in terms of trustworthiness, Hui said, though he said he preferred a mix of the two.
