The university wants to be in a position to use ChatGPT for educational purposes. \u201cWe have noticed a need to integrate generative artificial intelligence into the education we provide. One example of this is the fact that many students are already using ChatGPT to help them study\u201d, says Bas Smit , Strategic Information Manager on Education at Erasmus Digitalisation & Information Services (EDIS). He is also a member of the Generative AI Task force. This task force, a collaboration of the Community for Learning & Innovation and EDIS, among others, was formed to explore how the university could use generative artificial intelligence in education. \u201cAs a university, we can see both the potential risks and opportunities of artificial intelligence. Which is exactly why we want the university itself to facilitate its use\u201d, Smit says. According to Smit, the project\u2019s focus is on learning how to harness generative artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n\n\t
