Generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) has been the most disruptive force to hit education in a long time, and educators are still absorbing the impact. My colleagues and I have had to reprogram our approaches and classroom assessments as Gen AI infiltrates every aspect of the academic setting.
I was not ready to have Gen AI affect my work with Holocaust education. I’ve come to believe that the risk of harmful outcomes using Gen AI to recreate images or scenes from the Holocaust outweigh the potential educational benefits. And I’m not alone.
