THE FUTURE OF TEACHING AND CARETAKING: AI ADVANCEMENTS AND THEIR IMPLICATIONS
Valentina PAJAZITI, Driton PAJAZITI
Abstract
In today's rapidly evolving world, new technologies and inventions on the horizon are changing our perspective on how we live and choose to live our lives. AI technologies like GPT-4, BERT, ChatGPT, Midjourney, and DALL-E are already changing how humans learn and interact—children and adults alike. The main implications of these technologies are observed in academic papers, programming, and idea generation. It is not that humans cannot be creative; rather, AI models offer users a wealth of ideas and information in record time, surpassing human capacities. Nevertheless, people are and will continue to misuse these technologies by relying on completed work and results. Thankfully, counter AI technologies are also improving at the same rate as AI, ensuring that today’s AI technologies are not perfect and do make mistakes. However, the future of teaching and caretaking will be impacted tremendously, with AI offering precision and consistency. Points will be raised on the morality of AI education as it will be "emotionless" and "dry"; however, while AI may lack emotion and personalization, its benefits, such as eliminating favoritism and grading bias, outweigh the drawbacks.
