If they decide they aren’t creative, they won’t pursue music. If they fail at the Science Fair, they’ll fall in love with art instead. Here are five ideas to get you started: blend a Growth Mindset with your current teaching. use tools appropriate to the project. Are there holes that need filling?

However, western science often ignores this traditional knowledge, marginalising Indigenous scientists and discouraging Indigenous students from pursuing careers in STEM. How does traditional knowledge inform western science? Why is traditional knowledge undervalued by western science?

Different Answers Are Given to Different Prompts 00;02;53;07 – 00;03;16;00 Vicki Davis So when I had my ten in computer science students, and I had them create tic tac toe in Python, we had eight of us who could run our code successfully. But also know that AI is going to give different answers for different students. for sure.

But now we can go on and ask for a map: But there are “prettier” map projections we could have used. Again, we can just ask it to produce this—underneath using our technology: Let’s change the projection again, now asking it again to pick it using its “general knowledge”: And, yes, it got the projection “right”.

I’ve written before (even in the book itself ) about the intellectual journey involved in the creation of A New Kind of Science. Developing new kinds of computational diagrams.

All in all, it’s a fascinating story, that both explains what’s been believed about thermodynamics, and provides some powerful examples of the complicated dynamics of the development and acceptance of ideas. It’s exciting now, of course, to be able to use the latest 21st-century ideas to take another step.

My goal here is to explore some of the science, technology—and philosophy—of what we can expect from AIs. There’s a direct analog of this in the realm of ideas: that with time higher and higher levels of abstraction are developed, that subsume what were formerly laborious details and specifics. What will AIs be able to do?
