New AI tools emerge every day. A recent Y Combinator podcast claims that 5 new Agentic AI companies will arise for every cloud-based application we use today. No conventional human could ever keep up.
Today’s tool encourages us to take a pause and reflect on how ready we are for the onslaught of opportunities we find in Generative AI and related apps. The approximately 20-minute AI Knowledge Check created by the University of Saskatchewan provides a guided tune-up of AI literacy skills. This Knowledge Check can serve as a launching point to open a class unit about AI ethics or a research-based project where you may or may not encourage students to use AI.
Bonus Tip: Throughout the AI Knowledge Check tool, users are introduced to tips and resources about “Being AI Literate.” These resources include the ROBOT Checklist for responsible AI, the UNESCO AI Competency Framework for Students, tips for evaluating GenAI Outputs, and an overview of Human-Centered AI.
