The education ministry has emphasized the need for students to understand artificial intelligence in new guidelines released Tuesday, setting out how generative AI can be integrated into schools and the precautions needed to address associated risks.
Students should comprehend the characteristics of AI, including its advantages and disadvantages, with the latter including personal information leakages and copyright infringement, before they use it, according to the guidelines. They explicitly state that passing off reports, essays or any other works produced by AI as one's own is inappropriate.
Furthermore, the guidelines promote the use of AI in English learning and encourage its integration into group activities, so students can ask about and address different perspectives, enhancing the depth of discussion.
