The Future of Education with Agentic AI Systems
So, what’s the deal with AI in education? It’s not about robot teachers taking over classrooms, thankfully. Think of it more as having super-smart digital assistants that can tailor learning specifically to each student, understand their struggles in real-time, and even help educators manage the mountains of administrative work. Agentic AI systems, in particular, are […]
Generative AI in pharmaceutical development: from empirical screening to predictive design
Generative AI is revolutionising drug discovery, moving us from trial-and-error to intelligent design. Essentially, it’s about teaching computers to create new molecules, predict their behaviour, and optimise drug candidates before they even hit a lab bench. This shift means faster, cheaper, and more effective development of medicines. For decades, drug discovery was a bit like […]
92% of Students Use AI — 2x Learning Gains Prove It Works (When Done Right)
It’s true, a massive 92% of students are now using AI tools. And here’s the kicker: when these tools are used effectively, they’re demonstrably boosting learning outcomes, sometimes even doubling them. This isn’t just about cheating or finding shortcuts; it’s about leveraging technology to personalise learning, streamline tasks, and deepen understanding in ways traditional methods […]
What an AI-Native School Might Look Like
Alright, let’s dive into what an AI-native school might actually look like. Forget the sci-fi movie tropes of robots teaching kids; the reality is far more nuanced and, frankly, more practical. In essence, an AI-native school isn’t about replacing humans with machines. Instead, it’s about deeply integrating artificial intelligence tools and methodologies into every facet […]
Research gaps in AI for TCM clinical and foundational studies
So, you’re curious about how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is shaking things up in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)? It’s a fascinating area, and when we talk about the research gaps in AI for TCM, we’re essentially asking: where are the blind spots and what do we still need to figure out to make AI a truly […]
Designing Human-Centered AI for Education
So, you’re wondering about designing AI for education, but not the clunky, soulless kind. You want it to feel natural, useful, and genuinely supportive for students and educators alike. The good news is, it’s entirely possible. Human-centred AI in education means building tools that understand and adapt to real human needs, rather than trying to […]
TCM digitalization and GenAI: where functional segmentation matters
Alright, let’s dive into how Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is grappling with the digital age, and more specifically, why just throwing Generative AI (GenAI) at it isn’t enough. The short answer is this: TCM’s complex, multifaceted nature means that effective digitalisation, especially with GenAI, hinges critically on understanding and addressing its various functional segments individually. […]
The Next Wave of AI-Enabled Learning Analytics
AI is already changing how we understand learning, but what’s next? Think of it as moving beyond simply tracking what students do to really understanding how and why they learn, and then using that insight to help them – and their educators – do even better. This next wave is all about deeper, more personalised, […]
Preserving cultural context when using GenAI in TCM practice
Navigating the integration of Generative AI (GenAI) into Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practice comes with a crucial caveat: preserving the rich cultural context that underpins TCM. Simply put, GenAI, in its current form, is a powerful tool, but it’s not a sentient being steeped in centuries of holistic understanding. Its outputs are based on the […]
Google Vids Lets Teachers Make Pro Videos in Minutes, Not Hours
Right, so you’re probably wondering if this whole “Google Vids” thing for teachers is actually as good as it sounds. Can you really whip up professional-looking videos without needing a film degree and a week of your life? The short answer is: yes, it’s designed to do just that. Google Vids aims to take the […]
