The
Conference bridging Generative AI and Academia named “Generative AI INsights
2023 (GAIN) was organized by CUHK Centre for Learning Enhancement And Research
(CLEAR), Knowledge and Education Exchange Platform (KEEP) and AI in Education
on 8th Jun 2023. This conference encourages the exploration and
exchange of the potential of generative AI in teaching, learning, and
assessment, as well as the ethical and legal implications of this technology.
In
the beginning, Prof. Isabella Poon (Pro-Vice-Chancellor / Vice – President, Faculty
of Science, CUHK) gave an opening ceremony.
The
first keynote was Prof. Irwin King (Chairman and Professor, Department of

and Future of Generative AI in Education”. In the beginning, Prof. King
demonstrated the AI girl giving speech. A new era is coming.
Then

after 10 years.
And
then Prof. King discussed how ChatGPT passed Turing test and what’s next ChatGPT.
Some AI tools for educators in general were demonstrated.
After
that he also showed some AI tools for research use. AI could inspire
Creativity, Critical Thinking, Problem Solving, Collaboration, Curiosity and
Growth.
Finally,
Prof. King discussed assessment style changed when employed ChatGPT in
university including homework essay, written exams, home & solo work. That
becomes more onsite work immediately, higher interaction and team work. Lastly,
he shared some parting thoughts including use AI to think with you but not for
you, moving from knowledge transfer to process-oriented acquisition.
The

Curriculum, Teaching and Inclusive, Monash University) and his presentation
named “Generative AI and the Future of Education”. In the beginning, Dr. Creely demonstrated AI
generated poems.

education into the future.
After
that Dr. Creely pointed out three ethical issues in education including
ownership, Western bias and erroneous information. Two dangers in education were discussed and
they were over-reliance and subjugation.

reducing content and quantity of assessment that is not lowering standards.
Re-design of assessment is needed.

Student
panel discussion with the theme: Generative AI in Education - The Student Views
