抖阴MAX’s Current Stance on Use of Generative AI
抖阴MAX’s values promote a dynamic balance between tradition and innovation. Because the rapid development of Generative AI provides transformational opportunities to enhance the educational experience, advance the generation of new knowledge, foster continuous learning, and support the collective pursuit of excellence, 抖阴MAX endorses the discerning, informed, and ethical use of generative AI by students, faculty, and staff.
At Choate, an ethical approach to Generative AI is rooted in the deep trust and meaningful relationships that define our community. The human connections, interactions, and authentic work that are central to the Choate experience should only ever be amplified by the use of Generative AI, never replaced by it. This approach must also include critical examination of the tool itself. Such direct interrogation of the diverse human concerns and possibilities within Generative AI will ensure that the Choate community remains aware, reflective, curious, and responsive. Finally, as we explore, experiment with, and examine this powerful new technology, we must also recognize and attend to uses of Generative AI that are not appropriate, beneficial, or desirable.
Through this dynamically balanced approach, Choate aspires to model how to embrace this evolving technology responsibly while remaining aligned with core institutional values in order to move into an unknown and exciting future with the insight, creativity, and skills to shape it.
