Who said that the age of AI is “intelligent”?
Klaus Schwab@ProfKlausSchwab

What will universities look like in the age of artificial intelligence? We are entering a transformation that reaches far beyond educational reform. The Intelligent Age, shaped by artificial intelligence, exponential technologies, and deep societal change, questions the very purpose of universities, the role of professors, and the expectations placed on students. It challenges not only how we teach but why we educate. Higher education stands at a decisive moment. Universities can help societies master the Intelligent Age, or risk losing relevance and public trust. What is at stake is not only employability or institutional prestige but the capacity of societies to preserve truth, cultivate judgment, and sustain human and democratic values in a technology-driven world. The book 'Universities, Professors and Students in the Intelligent Age' is written from a clear conviction: incremental adjustments are no longer sufficient. Artificial intelligence is transforming how knowledge is created, validated, and shared. Universities must therefore rethink their mission, moving beyond episodic education toward lifelong learning, interdisciplinary integration, and responsibility toward society. The perspective offered here is shaped by my own path as a professor and by decades of close engagement with universities worldwide, as well as by my work in building and leading global institutions. It also draws on my reflections in 'Restoring Truth and Trust in the Intelligent Age', arguing that technological progress must be accompanied by a renewed commitment to truth, responsibility, and institutional integrity. Yet the central challenge of the Intelligent Age is not technological; it is human. Our ability to compute and optimize has advanced faster than our ability to contextualize, exercise judgment, and act responsibly. Professors must increasingly serve as mentors and ethical guides; students must become active co-creators of their learning; universities must reclaim their role as institutions of wisdom and public purpose. The book speaks not only to academic leaders, professors, and students but also to parents, policymakers, business leaders, and citizens. The future of innovation, social cohesion, and democratic resilience depends on how higher education evolves. ‘Universities, Professors and Students in the Intelligent Age’ is available from all major online booksellers: ➡️🔗books2read.com/Universities #IntelligentAge

Si escribir ya no exige esfuerzo mental, el aprendizaje desaparece. Hay una crisis silenciosa en las universidades: el uso masivo de IA para hacer tareas. No basta con prohibirla ni con detectores fallidos. Hay que rediseñar la evaluación. 🎓🤖 The New York Times: Cuando “incluso los alumnos buenos” usan IA para evitar el trabajo, el problema no es disciplina: es diseño institucional. La universidad debe volver a exigir demostraciones en tiempo real: ensayos en clase, exámenes orales, evaluación auténtica. nytimes.com/es/2025/08/27/…

Un interesante recordatorio sobre la relevancia de la empatía y la atención lo que necesita el otro para crear entornos más humanos y huir de lo que únicamente se basa en lo transaccional

🚨 Holy shit… Stanford just exposed that every major AI company is using your private conversations to train their models by default. They analyzed the privacy policies of OpenAI, Google, Meta, Anthropic, Microsoft, and Amazon. Reviewed 28 separate documents across all 6 companies. The findings are worrisome. Every prompt you type. Every file you upload. Every personal detail you share. All of it feeds directly into model training the moment you hit send. That health question you asked ChatGPT at 2am? Training data. Legal situation you described to Claude? Training data. The photo you uploaded to Gemini? Training data. Some companies retain your conversations INDEFINITELY. Amazon, Meta, and OpenAI have no confirmed deletion timeline for certain chat data. Your most private conversations could sit on their servers forever. It gets worse for kids. Four out of six companies allow children aged 13-18 to use their chatbots, and most don’t treat children’s data any differently. Kids’ conversations are likely getting fed into model training by default. Kids who can’t legally consent to it. Here’s something most people missed: enterprise customers are opted OUT of training by default. You, the consumer paying $20/month? Opted IN. Companies paying thousands? Protected automatically. There’s a two-tiered privacy system and you’re on the wrong side of it. OpenAI even frames the opt-in with guilt. Their settings page says “Improve the model for everyone.” Stanford’s researchers flagged this as a textbook dark pattern designed to make you feel bad for protecting your own data. Meta’s contractors told reporters they routinely see identifiable personal information in the chat data they review. Journalists were able to positively identify at least one real person from chat transcripts shared with them. The privacy policies themselves? Stanford had to dig through 6 separate documents just for OpenAI alone. Most real disclosures were buried in sub-policies no normal person would ever find. The researchers said it was challenging for THEM to piece it together. For consumers? “Practically impossible.” Only Microsoft explicitly stated they try to remove personal data like names, phone numbers, and addresses before training. The rest are either vague about it or completely silent.

Although Mina Cikara is primarily a social psychologist whose work centers on intergroup processes, empathy, bias, and social neuroscience, her research has been widely taken up in behavioral economics, management, organizational behavior, marketing, and political economy.

In these days of polarisation, knowing where we belong and classify others seems extremely important to organisations and even to our personal lives. We will make the video available for those people who will not be able to join us at @IQSbarcelona

and it should be the opposite; more AI and capital intensity should allow individuals to be more productive, given the number of hours that they work. Not sure what he meant. What Germany needs seems to be more innovation, not more hours of hour.
Clash Report@clashreport

German Chancellor Merz: We are simply no longer productive enough. Each individual may say, “I already do quite a lot.” And that may be true. But when you return from China, ladies and gentlemen, you see things more clearly. With work-life balance and a four-day week, long-term prosperity in our country cannot be maintained. We will simply have to do a bit more.

aos poucos vao saindo coisas
Vicent Gadea | IA@vicentgadea

He estado leyendo una guía institucional sobre IA en educación que aterriza el debate donde toca: principios pedagógicos claros, comprensión de cómo funcionan las IA antes de regularlas, análisis de riesgos reales (ilusión de aprendizaje, dependencia, privacidad), marco legal europeo aplicable a los centros y, sobre todo, criterios diferenciados para profesorado y alumnado por etapas educativas. No es un documento centrado en herramientas, sino en gobernanza educativa y responsabilidad institucional. Me refiero a la “Guía para el uso de las inteligencias artificiales en el ámbito educativo” del Gobierno Vasco. 3 ideas que me parecen especialmente sólidas 1) La guía asume una realidad que los primeros dos años de "ChatGPT", muchos centros educativos no querían ver. El alumnado ya usa chatbots “a escondidas”. Prohibir sin más no resuelve el problema. Propone que el profesorado actúe con prudencia y que el centro decida cómo va a gestionar el tema. 2) Pone un límite por etapas y por edad Incluye una recomendación muy concreta sobre menores y uso de chatbots, y recuerda que hay herramientas con restricciones de edad (menciona, por ejemplo, NotebookLM). Es una llamada a la responsabilidad legal y organizativa del centro. 3) El foco no está en “detectar”, sino en “diseñar evaluación” Una de las aportaciones más útiles es esta: si se permite el uso, pide transparencia y evidencias del proceso (por ejemplo, borradores, esquemas, diarios de aprendizaje o el historial de versiones en Word/Google Docs). Y si se prohíbe, propone tareas más personales y control del proceso (trabajo en aula, escritura a mano, etc.). La guía ofrece estrategias, pero deja bastante abierto cómo traducir “permitido / parcial / prohibido” a un modelo operativo de evaluación que sea fácil de aplicar por todo un claustro, materia a materia. Ahí es donde muchos centros se atascan. Pregunta para directivos y docentes: ¿En tu centro ya hay un marco común sobre IA o depende de cada profe y de cada tarea? Dejo el enlace a la guía y a mi newsletter en el primer comentario. #edtech #IA #AI #inteligenciaartificial
