Lessons on Prompting Artificial Intelligence (AI)
|
|
Hello Everyone, Lately I have been contemplating more and more about what I should be teaching my students for them to be successful in life and especially the business world--what do they really NEED in regards to English to get by in life? This contemplation seems to contiunually direct me to artificial intelligence (AI) and its rapidly increasing use in most aspects of life. My personal thoughts are that, in the future, my students will need less and less writing and grammar skills and more and more prompting skills- (Prompting refers to how we request things from AI programs to get out our desired results). I know a few Universities have started offering classes on prompting and am curious to hear what anyone�s thoughts are on teaching prompting as an esl topic as well. Have any of you had any such encounters or thoughts on the subject? Cheers, Douglas |

I so agree with you about writing being important and the benefits therefrom Maryse. And I too fear that it is deteriorating with time and the laziness/convenience garnered from modern technology. As I look deeper into AI and LLMs (Large Languae Models) I see how our inputs really do shape the answers they give. My son was telling me the other day how he is always polite to AI (he uses it to discuss philosophical ideas) so that it learns that politeness is part of being human" and if the future models base themselves from his conversations, they wil include this human factor. Who knows, perhaps the interactions we are having now are shaping future AI behavior. Cheers, Douglas |

Noun or adverb?
|
|
Dear friends,
"He came from inside."
In this sentence, what is the part of speech of ´inside´?
I think ´from inside´ is a prepositional phrase. So, ´inside´ is a noun.
I am curious to know your opinions.
Thank you.

Isn�t "inside" describing the unmentioned object (e.g. inside the house, the office, etc.)? And wouldn�t that make it a prepositonal phrase serving as a noun(?) ?
Dunno, just a thought.

LOOKING FOR ENGLISH COMPETIONS!!!!!
|
|
Hello, dear community! I am from Moldova and I am looking for some English international contests/ competitions/ Olympiads in which the children aged 8-14 could take place so as to show their knowledge of the English language. It can be any type of Olympiads or contests conducted in a written form (through subscription/ registration, etc) or orally (via Zoom, Meet, etc). These could also be competitions in which the children could compete with other kids from other schools from other countries, etc. at the end of which they could get a certificate of participation with the results (places or whatever the rules for the competition are)! If such contests/ Olympiads of the English Language are held in your country/ city/ school, and you are interested in finding partners from abroad, please, let me know in my private messages. I �d be very grateful and pleased to answer and consider your proposals!!! Thank you in advance and looking forward to hearing from any of you... |
