FUNDAMENTALS COME FIRST

The harder it is to learn something, the more likely you'll remember it for longer periods of time.... If you get domain expertise, you'll be able to use these [AI] tools in a much more powerful way later on -Bharat N. Anand, Vice Provost for Advances in Learning, Harvard University; Henry R.

In an era of rapid technological advances, how should you approach the raft of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools that are now available to carry out your tasks? Bharat N. Anand, Vice Provost for Advances in Learning at Harvard University, offers a simple thumb rule: the cost of errors and the time saved. For tasks that require precise information and where the cost of making a mistake is high, people will still be very careful about how they use Generative AI (GenAI). But for chores where GenAI can automate the mundane fairly well, the sheer amount of time saved will drive adoption.
