What are your initial thoughts around AI – jot down words that come to mind.

For example:

Curiosity

Wary

Reflection: What do we see here?

Is any of this surprising?

How would this be different from our feelings/thoughts about “digital” in more general terms?

Fear of the unknown? Do you already have experience?

Price of a cup of coffee

Around € 1 for an espresso (il caffè). Please note that in Italy the price for coffee at the bar is often lower than at the table.

Experiencing Rome for free

Rome offers great options for any kind of traveller. Many of the greatest places can be visited completely for free. Our guide how to see Rome for free shares local tips on what to do and what to avoid, and how to truly experience the city without spending a single euro!

Dining in Rome

In the evening many Roman Bars and cafés offer 'aperitivo' (also known as 'happy hour'). This usually means that you buy a drink which is slightly more expensive, and in return you can eat all the food that is exposed during some hours. It is a very casual way of dining in a joyful atmosphere. Italians love it!

Tipping

Tipping is not required but welcome. Tips are typically up to € 5.

Tap water

The tap water in Rome is drinkable, enjoy!

Shopping

Shops are typically open from 9-13h and from 15:30-19:30h (16-20h in summer). Mainstream stores in the centre of the city usually work from 10:30-19:30h. On Sundays, most stores are closed (except the Sunday before Christmas).

In August, life in the city virtually freezes. Most stores close for at least two weeks due to the holiday Ferragosto.

Public transport

Metro, buses and trams make up the public transport in Rome. On all modes of transport there is a Metrebus or BIT ticket (biglietto integrate a tempo) required. Tickets need to be bought before boarding, at ticket offices or vending machines (often cash only) at the entrance of metro stations, or in tobacco and newspaper kiosks.

A ticket for one trip (BIT) costs € 1.50, and is valid for 100 minutes. During this time, you can change bus or tram routes as often as you like, but you can get on the metro only once.

Metro

The metro in Rome operates from 5:30h to 23:30h, and on Friday and Saturday till 1:30h. The interval between trains is around 7-10 minutes. Use the metro map to plan your trip, or install a metro app ( Android or IOS) for up-to-date information.

Buses and tramways

Trams and buses in Rome run from 5:30h till midnight. The waiting interval is about 10 minutes, however buses are not always on time in Italy. Trams stop at every stop, but better notify the driver that you want to get off by pressing the button.

Night buses

Night buses ('Autobus Notturni') operate after midnight. A dark blue number with a yellow owl on the side and the letter 'N' indicates their stops. The network of night routes is not as comprehensive as it is during the day, but you should always be able to reach any part of Rome.

Trains

Tickets for trains can be bought at ticket offices or vending machines inside stations, or online. Before you board a train, you must validate your ticket at yellow-orange posts located near the entrance to the platforms. Find detailed information like train schedules and fares on the official website of the Italian Railways.

From the Airport to Rome

The two most important airports of Rome are Fiumicino (FCO) and Ciampino (CIA), both located south of Rome.

From Fiumicino Airport to Rome

Rome Fiumicino Airport (FCO) has four terminals: 1, 2, 3 and 5. The terminals are within walking distance from each other.

Train

Special Leonardo Express trains connect Fiumicino Airport with Termini Station, the central transport hub of the city. Trains run every 30 minutes, and every 15 minutes during rush hour.

Regular FL1 trains connect Fiumicino Airport with Tiburtina Station, east of the city centre of Rome. These trains run at intervals of 15 minutes on weekdays, and at intervals of 30 minutes on weekends and holidays.

Bus

The bus stop at the airport is located in front of terminal T2. Tickets can be bought at special kiosks, and upon entering the bus. The trip to Rome takes about an hour.

Taxi

A taxi ride to one of the central districts of Rome should cost around € 40-60. The price includes a trip for a maximum of four passengers with luggage. Please note that official taxis are white with a TAXI sign on the roof and with license identification numbers on the doors.

See the official website of Fiumicino Airport for the latest news, and the various ways of getting there.

From Ciampino Airport to Rome

Rome Ciampino Airport (CIA) has just one terminal, operating primarily low-cost flights.

Bus

Buses connect Ciampino Airport with Termini railway station, the main transport hub of the city. The bus (for instance Terravision) is a popular and cheap option, with one-way tickets to Rome for about € 5. Tickets can be bought upon entering the bus, or at the ticket office inside the terminal. The ride to Termini takes around 45 minutes.

See the official website of Ciampino Airport for the latest news, and the various ways of getting there.

Events in Rome

Easter

Pasqua is rightfully considered the most important Catholic holiday in Rome. In the Easter week you can attend Masses in the Vatican from Thursday on. On Good Friday you can see a solemn Catholic procession from the Colosseum to Palatine Hill. After sunset on Holy Saturday, the Pope begins the Easter Vigil. On Easter Sunday a Mass is held on St Peter's Square.

Natale di Roma

Natale di Roma is one of the oldest holidays in the world. It celebrates the day Rome was founded, according the legend on 21 April, 753 BC. On this day at noon something spectacular happens in the Pantheon, with a sunbeam penetrating the dome and falling exactly on the entrance portal. During this day festivities include music concerts and fireworks, particularly around Campidoglio Hill and in the neighborhood of Aventino. On this day many sights offer free entrance.

Lungo il Tevere

Lungo il Tevere is an amazing event celebrated from June until September. The ancient embankment of the Tiber becomes the place of a grand culinary feast, with the best restaurants of Rome participating. The cultural program of the festival includes live concerts, theatre performances, art exhibitions, and evening discos. In order to truly experience the 'taste of Rome', it is better not to have your dinner at one single place, but to try small (street) snacks of different restaurants and cafés. For more information about this great event, see the official website (It).

Festa de' Noantri

During the second half of July, the neighborhood of Trastevere becomes the stage of Festa de' Noantri (It). This is a religious festival, celebrated already since the 16th century. The main festivity is a procession in the evening of 22 July, when an elaborately-dressed statue of the Virgin Mary is carried from the church of Sant' Agata towards the church of San Crisogono. The event traditionally ends with a fireworks show. See the official website (It) for the latest news.

Festival Internazionale di Musica e Arte Sacra

The Festival of Sacred Music takes place every autumn, across the Papal Basilicas of Rome - learn more about these four special churches in our article dedicated to the Papal Basilicas in Rome. Famous philharmonic orchestras and church choirs from around the world traditionally perform in these magnificent temples during the festival, surrounded by gorgeous works of art. All money raised during the event goes to the restoration of cultural monuments. Have a look at the official website for the latest news.

Local pages

Bicycle rental

Riding a bicycle can be hard in Rome. Although there are some dedicated bike lanes, the hills and the traffic can make it a challenge. Leaving your bicycle on the street without a lock is not a good idea, as it may get stolen. If you still want to take up this challenge, renting a bicycle in Rome costs about € 15 a day. We can recommend BiciBaci and Rent Bike Cool as local rentals.

Bus tours

Rome offers several hop-on hop-off bus tours around the city. One of the best-known operators is the red-colored City Sightseeing.

Dar Filettaro

In Via dei Giubbonari, near Campo de' Fiori, you may encounter a small crowd outside surrounded in a smell of fried codfish. It is the smell of a legendary restaurant, only offering traditional products: roman 'puntarelle' (bread with butter and anchovies), 'baccalà in pastella' (fried cod), or beans with oil and fried zucchini. It's a traditional and remarkable place, primarily attended by Romans. The place also offers take-away codfish. See their Facebook page for more info.

Taxi

Official taxis in Rome are white colored. Apps like FREE NOW or Uber also work well in Rome.

Tourist office

The tourist office in Rome is always ready to help you with advice and useful information. There are several Tourist Infopoints across the city centre, for instance inside Termini Station. Find the full list on their official website.

Train

Find detailed information like train schedules and fares on the official website of the Italian Railways. You can book your tickets directly online.

Narrow AI

Narrow AI performs a single specific tasks that intelligent systems have been taught (usually without being sophistically programmed.  Examples include: voice recognition like Siri (for Apple) is an example) for Apple users and self-driving cars.

Machine and Deep Learning

Narrow AI is based on algorithms that try to imitated human intelligence. Machine learning takes in data and uses statistics to better learn the data for improvement. Machine learning is made up of both supervised (entering data sets) and unsupervised learning (finding patterns in unlabeled data).

Deep learning, also known as deep neural learning, is a type of machine learning technique that tries to imitate the human brain by inputting data through a biological-inspired neural network.  In these networks data is processed to make connections and creating patterns.

General AI

General AI is more complex because it tries to mirror human intellect using its ability to learn and apply the knowledge learnt to solve problems. We are now going through the process of transitioning from Narrow AI to General AI.

Examples of AI Applications:

Speech recognition: This is the process of enabling a computer to recognize spoken words and have the ability to respond, for example; Alexa

Language Processing: enables software to understand, interpret and generate the human language, for example; language translation.

Image recognition: This process can classify text, people, and objects. Examples of this are; fingerprint IDs, self-driving cars, and face recognition.

The Inferno book is narrated through a visual and multimedia journey.

Inspired by the verses of the Divine Comedy, Riccardo Boccuzzi describes Dante's Inferno to the AI, which, for the first time, renders an entire literary work in images, giving it its original interpretation.

Twenty-one works are printed in large format and very high quality; others are presented on audiovisual support, animated videos, and an extract of a documentary directed by the artist, recounting the long creative and production process. The result is Artificial Hell, Dante's infernal journey through more than 10,000 images, which becomes the first sequence of figurative works realised by an algorithm.

Thanks to a standard and uniform style of the images, these take on the stark colours of a world that swings between gothic and fantasy, where the undefined faces of the characters evoke a dimension of mystery and discovery, leading us into a truly immersive experience that allows the visitor to enter the circles of hell together with Dante and Virgil.

To see the full schema and try examples yourself, check out our API documentation.

Our classifier returns a document-level score completely_generated_prob that specifies the probability the entire document was AI-generated. We would recommend using this score when deciding whether or not there is a significant use of AI in generating the text.n our validation dataset, here is how the results change when you set all documents with completely_generated_prob under the threshold as human, and above as AI:

At a threshold of 0.88, 85% of AI documents are classified as AI, and 99% of human documents are classified as human

At a threshold of 0.5, 96% of AI documents are classified as AI, and 96% of human documents are classified as human

We recommend using a threshold of 0.88 or higher to minimize the number of false positives, as we think it is currently more harmful to falsely detect human writing as AI than vice versa.

Additionally, we highlight sentences that been detected to be written by AI. API users can access this highlighting through the highlight_sentence_for_ai field. The sentence-level classification should not be soley used to indicate that an essay contains AI (such as ChatGPT plagiarism). Rather, when a document gets a MIXED or AI_ONLY classification, the highlighted sentence will indicate where in the document we believe this occurred.

Developing Awareness and Proficiency

Chances are that you already use an array of software in your classrooms like Google Docs, Blackboard and Instructure Canvas

Before you have students using them, you need to build your skills with the software. It is the same thing with AI.

Find open source resources with lists of AI tools, tutorials, and documentation for learning and support. These can be shared and used by instructors and students. Online forums and repositories (such as GitHub) , research organizations (such as MIT), and technology blogs (such as That AI Collection) are locations to start searching.

Attend workshops and webinars that introduce AI tools and demonstrate their capabilities using online learning platforms (such as Course Hero), event platforms (such as Eventbrite) or social media (such as LinkedIn)

Hello, everyone. My name is Sandra Gomes and I am an English teacher in a secondary school in Matosinhos, in the north of Portugal. My students are aged between 11 and 18.

When am not working, I like to read and to travel.

Because I work with teens, I find important to keep updated when it comes to methodologies and digital tools. Since my students already use Artificial Intelligence apps, like Chat GPT, I think it is important to learn more about how I can teach my students to use them in the classroom, thus developing their critical thinking.

See you all soon.

Lungo Il Tevere - the best summer festival in Rome

Rome is such an amazing city to explore as it is, and if it couldn't get any 'cooler,' here's one festival you should not miss. The Tevere Expo is back for 2024!

Since 2003, Rome has been hosting the annual summer festival, Lungo il Tevere. It's where the banks of the famous Fiume Tevere, or Tiber River, in the heart of Rome come to life with numerous cultural events.
This post contains affiliate links. If you click on something and make a purchase we may make a small commission. Also, as an Amazon associate we earn from qualifying purchases. For more information, please see our Disclosure Statement about all our affiliations.
You can experience theatre, dance, and music in venues along the river; most of which are free. This is really a fun Rome cultural event.

Numerous artisans display their one-of-a kind pieces you can take home to impress your friends, and there are plenty of places to try craft beers, international and local cuisine and you might even find the best gelato in Rome there. It's a great place to meet friends for the evening.

The Tiber becomes a river of culture where the heart of the city comes to life. I've been here a couple of times and I continue to be impressed with all that is there to see and do.

Check all my travel resources here so you know what I use to book accommodation.

What are the dates of the Lungo il Tevere?

So when is il Lungo il Tevere? The annual Lungo il Tevere runs roughly from early June until last week in August/first weekend in Sept. The dates for 2024 are 07 June - 25 August. I can tell you I will not miss it this summer.

The Tevere Expo flanks the banks of the Tevere River near the Trastevere neighborhood of Rome and the atmosphere is very modern day Roman.

One thing to keep in mind is that Romans go on vacation in August. This can be a curse and a blessing. You may find several places closed and others remain open.

However, that means you are not competing with the locals to see either the Lungo il Tevere or the many monuments that you must see in Rome.

I've been in Rome in August, and while it was scorching hot, the city was empty. Yes... empty. Most Romans are on holiday and the tourists were probably out enjoying one the the many day trips from Rome. So consider going in August... ?

Where is il Lungo il Tevere, exactly?

Click the map below and it's pretty clear. This will take you to the official website.

You start at Piazza Trilussa just on the south side of Ponte (Bridge) Sisto and follow the Tevere River around to the end at Porta Portese.

To be honest, the most lively areas are from Ponte Sisto to Ponte Palatino, but explore all of it to see everything. Below is a great map to get your bearings of the Lungo il Tevere.

While you are snooping around the artist's kiosks and restaurants, if you can get a spot at the Lost River Lounge Bar, stop there! You are near the small rapids of the Tiber River flowing down. The Tiber was flowing quite swiftly when I was there and was a nice, lively addition to when I was meeting friends. It also created a bit of a breeze in the humid, Roman air.

What time does Il Lungo il Tevere start?

Lungo Il Tevere starts at 7:00p and most of the cultural events, like the theater, dance... start around 9/9:30p.

Romans do things late and this is no exception. I have to admit I found their hours annoying, but only on the weekend. I wanted to go there during the day on a Saturday. Not only was it closed, I was told I couldn't even enter to take a look around. What???

Understandably, people have day jobs and do these summer festivals in the evening. It's nothing grave, but a bit annoying.

As a caveat, this festival gets frickin' busy at night! If you want to have a look around, sample some food and drinks, and actually get a seat, go early! From 7-9p, most Italians are dining and will come to Il Lungo il Tevere after dinner. This is when you'll also have the attention of the vendors, whether at the restaurants or the artists's kiosks.

And speaking of food, just north of here you can sign up for the Testaccio Neighborhood Food and Market tour. You will spend more than 3 hours discovering the neighborhood and sample more than a dozen tasty, local items. A couple of wines are on the menu for the day as well. It's a lovely way to discover the Testaccio area in Rome.

Okay... I'm not sure I get the fascination of this, but the place is full of foos-ball machines. Maybe, it's a late arrival from America, but there are numerous foos-ball machines interspersed for you to enjoy with friends. Or perhaps enemies, if you think you can out-do a Roman in foos-ball. Any rate, I didn't get the fascination, but they were busy!

How to get to Lungo Il Tevere

If you are staying in the heart of Rome, you simply find Ponte Sisto, or the Sisto Bridge and cross over the Tiber river. If you are near a tram route in another part of town, here are the metro and tram network maps.

This is very convenient if you are flying into Rome's Fiumicino airport. From the airport, you have two lines to choose from: either the Leonardo Express that will drop you off at Roma Termini train station, or you take the cheaper local train, the FL1 from Fiumicino airport to Trastevere Station. Then catch either the Tram lines 8 or 3 to head toward the river. You can also walk from the Trastevere train station.

Explore Rome

Rome is such a beautiful city to explore and much of it can be done on foot. There are so many ancient monuments in Rome to see, and neighborhoods that let you forget you are even in Rome. Make time to explore Rome.

Where to stay near il Lungo il Tevere

You can easily find apartments hotels in the Trastevere location of Rome with no problem.

A fantastic, superb-quality hotel to stay at, to be in the heart of the action, as well as close to il Lungo il Tevere, is Hotel Ponte Sisto.

This hotel is just on the other side of the Ponte Sisto (Sisto Bridge). This is on the side by Campo de' Fiori, so you are killing two birds with one stone with this hotel.

This is a fantastic 4*hotel with excellent service and amenities. I've stayed here a couple of times and I continue to go back. Check hotel prices here!

You can easily experience il Lungo il Tevere and the major historic parts of Rome by basing yourself at this hotel. I strongly recommend it. You are literally a one-minute walk to Lungo il Tevere and a 5-minute walk to the famous market of Campo de' Fiori. You can find hotels in Campo de' Fiori here.

I have also book a variety of Airbnb in this area of Rome when I was a film extra, and I have not been disappointed.

There you can experience the daily Campo de' Fiori market and the many, surprisingly reasonably-priced restaurants. I dined at a place called Virgilio, and was extremely surprised as to the price of the bruschetta ($3.50 - big enough for two) and the Spaghetti Carbonara (spaghetti with eggs, bacon and parmesan) for $15. There is a lot of competition in that area for patrons and many disregard Campo because there are a lot of tourists.

If you get there, let me know what you think and what you tried. And here are 16 additional things to do in Rome while you are there. Have a great time. Enjoy!!

ALT! Prima di iniziare con questo breve articolo, voglio darti un consiglio: devi sapere che, data la celebrità di questo splendido edificio, per visitare Castel Sant'Angelo rischierai di imbatterti in una lunga coda in biglietteria.

La Girandola a Castel Sant'Angelo 2024

Data dell'evento: 29 giugno 2024

Location: Castel Sant'Angelo, Lungotevere Castello 1, 30124 Roma (RM)

Orario di inizio: 21:30

Durata: 20 minuti circa

Girandola a Castel Sant'Angelo: storia e descrizione

Per andare alle origini di questo spettacolo pirotecnico dobbiamo tornare indietro nel tempo fino al 1481, quando fu realizzato sul Terrazzo dell'Angelo per celebrare il pontificato di papa Sisto IV.

Per suo volere, lo spettacolo della Girandola entrò nella tradizione dei festeggiamenti a Roma.

Per secoli venne utilizzato per celebrare gli eventi solenni come la Pasqua, la festa dei patroni SS. Pietro e Paolo e l'incoronazione del papa.

La tradizione vuole che il progetto originario appartenesse a Michelangelo Buonarroti. L'artista, che nel progetto prevedeva l'impiego di circa cinquemila razzi, si impegnò affinché l'attenzione degli spettatori si spostasse dal suono delle esplosioni ai colori sgargianti dei fuochi. Sfruttando complicate alchimie sui materiali impiegati, riuscì così a creare uno spettacolo degno delle sue migliori opere d'arte.

Il progetto venne poi perfezionato da Giovan Battista Bernini, che agì sui flumina lucis - i fiumi di luce - con metodo scientifico: non avrebbero dovuto essere meno di sessanta, ma nemmeno più di ottanta, solo così l'occhio umano avrebbe potuto coglierne tutte le sfumature senza confondersi.

Lo spettacolo fu quindi, fin da subito, calibrato e studiato in ogni dettaglio. Il finale, poi, lasciava di stucco i visitatori che giungevano a Roma da tutto il mondo per assistervi: una fontana di scintille luminose che abbracciava interamente l'imponente figura del castello.

La storia dell'arte è disseminata di testimonianze di questo evento di respiro internazionale: tra le tante opere, lo troviamo raffigurato sulle stampe di Giovan Battista Piranesi, nella poesia del romano Giuseppe Gioacchino Belli e nella prosa del celebre autore inglese Charles Dickens.

Sebbene con qualche discontinuità, lo spettacolo rimase nella tradizione romana fino alla fine dell'Ottocento, quando si decise di sospenderlo a causa degli ingenti danni alle decorazioni degli ambienti sottostanti il Terrazzo dell'Angelo.

Dal 2008, però, grazie a un'accurata ricostruzione filologica ad opera del Cav. Giuseppe Passeri del Gruppo IX Invicta, lo spettacolo è tornato a illuminare la notte romana in occasione della festa dei patroni SS. Pietro e Paolo del 29 giugno.

Girandola Mole Adriana: come vederla

Lo spettacolo della Girandola di Castel Sant'Angelo di solito ha luogo ogni 29 giugno a Roma in occasione della festa dei patroni locali SS. Pietro e Paolo.

La ricostruzione storica dello spettacolo pirotecnico della Girandola è oggi curata dall'architetto Giuseppe Passeri e dal Gruppo IX Invicta, e organizzata dalla Direzione Musei statali della Città di Roma e dal Museo Nazionale di Castel Sant'Angelo.

Nelle ultime edizioni, è stato possibile godere dello spettacolo piro-musicale dal Lungotevere Tor di Nona, dal Ponte Vittorio Emanuele II, dal Ponte Umberto I e naturalmente dal Ponte Sant'Angelo.

Lo spettacolo ha una durata di circa venti minuti.

La mostra sulla Girandola 2024
ATTENZIONE: Oltre all'evento "Girandola", nel 2024 è prevista una mostra della durata di tre mesi presso il Museo Nazionale di Castel Sant'Angelo.

Data dell'evento: 30 giugno - 30 settembre 2024

Location: Museo Nazionale di Castel Sant'Angelo e Passetto di Borgo

Dal 30 giugno al 30 settembre 2024, il Castel Sant'Angelo di Roma si prepara ad ospitare un'affascinante mostra dedicata alla Girandola, uno degli spettacoli pirotecnici più antichi e suggestivi della città. Un'occasione unica per immergersi nella storia, nell'arte e nella tradizione di questa celebrazione che, sin dal XVI secolo, ha illuminato i cieli romani con i suoi fuochi d'artificio carichi di significato e meraviglia.

L'esposizione, allestita nei monumentali ambienti del Castello, ripercorre le vicende della Girandola, dalle sue origini come celebrazione religiosa legata all'apparizione dell'Arcangelo Michele a Papa Gregorio Magno, fino ai giorni nostri. Un viaggio nel tempo che si snoda attraverso oltre 60 opere d'arte di artisti che hanno immortalato la magia di questo spettacolo: da Francesco Piranesi a Ippolito Caffi, da Adrian Manglard a William Bernard Cooke.

La mostra sarà suddivisa in cinque sezioni:

1. L'iconografia del fuoco nelle feste religiose e nell'apparizione dell'Arcangelo Michele;

2. Gli artisti, poeti, architetti e pittori che hanno assistito e raccontato la Girandola;

3. Esposizione iconografica della Girandola con quadri, stampe, acqueforti e manoscritti;

4. Riproduzione della postazione di lancio sulla Terrazza dell'Angelo per l'effetto "Vulcano";

5. La Girandola oggi.

Tra dipinti, stampe, acqueforti e un raro manoscritto del XVI secolo che descrive le miscele utilizzate per la realizzazione dei fuochi d'artificio, la mostra ci conduce alla scoperta di tecniche e ingegneria che hanno dato vita a vere e proprie opere d'arte effimere. Ma la Girandola non è solo spettacolo pirotecnico: è anche simbolo di fede, speranza e rinascita. Un'occasione per celebrare i momenti salienti della storia romana, dall'elezione dei Pontefici alle visite dei regnanti, fino alle ricorrenze religiose.

La mostra culmina con la riproduzione della postazione di lancio collocata sulla Terrazza dell'Angelo, permettendo al pubblico di immedesimarsi nella preparazione e nell'emozione dello spettacolo. Un'esperienza immersiva che si completa con la sezione dedicata alla Girandola oggi, raccontando l'evoluzione di questa tradizione e il suo ruolo nella cultura contemporanea.

Oltre alle opere d'arte, la mostra sarà arricchita da una pubblicazione/guida a colori in vendita presso il bookshop del museo, offrendo ai visitatori un approfondimento dettagliato sulla storia e il significato della Girandola. Un'occasione imperdibile per conoscere e apprezzare un pezzo di storia romana che continua ad affascinare e commuovere con la sua bellezza effimera e il suo profondo valore simbolico.
Un invito a non perdere questo viaggio suggestivo tra storia, arte e fuoco, dove la magia della Girandola rivive tra le mura di Castel Sant'Angelo.

Superintelligence: Paths, Dangers, Strategies" by Nick Bostrom explores the potential future impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on humanity. Bostrom examines the paths through which AI might develop to a level of superintelligence, far surpassing human capabilities. He discusses the significant risks associated with this development, such as the possibility of an AI acting in ways that are not aligned with human values and interests. The book delves into various strategies to ensure that superintelligent AI can be controlled and made beneficial for humanity. Bostrom emphasizes the importance of preparing for this technological breakthrough to maximize its benefits and minimize its risks.

One of the goals this week is to give you all the time to come up with a plan for how you will specifically implement AI into your classrooms when you return to your school.

I would suggest that you approach crafting your plan by answering the following questions.

1) Describe an assignment/project that you will either create with AI, or perhaps a project where you have your students using AI.

2) Identify the specific AI tool that you will use and how you will use it.

3) When you give this assignment, what specific guidelines are you going to give students about their use of AI.

4) What is your timeline and the expected outcome?

5) How is this change/addition going to benefit your students, your colleagues, and yourself?

Note: If you would rather focus on larger policy changes, that is fine too. It very much depends where you are in this process of implementing AI in your classrooms. Whatever you do, make it manageable and specific with a clear timeline and clear goals.

Also, if you want to stray from the above questions, that is absolutely fine. Remember, this time to plan is for your use!
