Politics of Generative Artificial Intelligence in Empowering Education in the UK
摘要
This chapter concentrates on politics of generative artificial intelligence in empowering education in the UK. With the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, the field of education has witnessed profound changes. As a global frontier in technological innovation, the UK has gradually developed a series of systematic policy frameworks in promoting the empowerment of education by artificial intelligence. This chapter aims to analyze and summarize the policy evolution, implementation status and challenges faced by the UK in the field of artificial intelligence empowering education and put forward corresponding countermeasures and suggestions. Firstly, this article provides an overview of the background of the UK’s artificial intelligence policy and its close connection with educational reform and points out the government’s strategic layout in promoting artificial intelligence education. By sorting out the evolution process of policies, this chapter demonstrates how the British government has gradually promoted the application of artificial intelligence technology in the education system at various stages by adjusting policy goals and increasing investment. However, in the implementation of artificial intelligence education policies, the UK still faces challenges such as a shortage of teachers, uneven distribution of educational resources, insufficient policy adaptability, and ethical issues. In response to these issues, this chapter puts forward countermeasures and suggestions such as strengthening the construction and training of teaching staff, enhancing the flexibility and innovation of the education system, improving the fairness and popularity of artificial intelligence education, and paying more attention to the ethical issues of artificial intelligence education. Through the optimization and reform of policies, the UK is expected to better address these challenges and achieve the all-round development of education empowered by artificial intelligence. This chapter, through an in-depth analysis of the UK’s artificial intelligence education policies, provides beneficial inspirations for the formulation of relevant education policies and emphasizes that in the context of global competition in artificial intelligence technology, the education sector should keep pace with the times and cultivate future talents with innovative capabilities and practical skills.
