Does putting transcripts through AI aid learning?

I had a text based interaction with someone which went a bit strangely. I decided to ask AI, Gemini and Copilot, what they thought for another perspective.

I asked if it could analyse a conversation and then put the whole lot in unedited. I gave it no directions.

I think it can be a useful tool to aid learning. It can highlight points where misunderstanding happened. I'd not use it to apportion blame, just to see where errors occur.

It highlighted the issue of online text communication going wrong, where you miss social cues and context. Words can be misunderstood, through bias, accident or intention. AI could do the same but it should give the most likely normal interpretation. A transcript of a face to face interaction put through ai may be less reliable though as it misses some data.

It was interesting and confirmed my thoughts, it was not me in this case. My instincts were correct. Since ASD has communication issues I am trying to see where my issues lie. I can't control other people. A more significant interaction earlier in the day had also gone fine.

  • Excellent links explaining why we can be susceptible to confirmation bias.

    Teachers are concerned that they are not receiving adequate training on the use of AI, as the TES research demonstrates:

    In our research, more than nine in 10 teachers had concerns about AI. The biggest worries were around pupils cheating, inaccurate or unreliable information, bias or unfairness in how AI works, and data privacy.

    Some people believe misinformation on social media, or choose to repeat it knowing it is untrue, so I am concerned about how much more confirmation bias will exacerbate the existing problem. I fear that the world will be flooded with more lies and misinformation unless governments get together to agree on measures to tackle the problem.
