For generations, formal education has been designed so that we learn to work. People go to school, acquire knowledge and skills, and then apply for jobs where that knowledge and skill can be applied. People learn so that they can work. This model motivated generations of individuals to become teachers, engineers, nurses, business leaders, and accountants during the twentieth century. However, the learn-to-work model has been losing its appeal for decades. Consider the possibility that this steep decline is not because any particular generation or segment of the population is addicted to social media, lazy or fragile. Consider instead that it is because our system of education (cradle-to-grave) is producing exactly what it was designed to produce. It was not designed to appeal to every person. It was not designed to serve every segment of the population. It was designed to rank and sort.

ChatGPT is by far the most widely recognized generative AI product – around 50% of the online population in the six countries surveyed have heard of it. It is also by far the most widely used generative AI tool in the six countries surveyed. That being said, frequent use of ChatGPT is rare, with just 1% using it on a daily basis in Japan, rising to 2% in France and the UK, and 7% in the USA. Many of those who say they have used Generative AI have used it just once or twice, and it is yet to become part of people’s routine Internet use.

Welcome to the seventh edition of the AI Index Report. The 2024 Index is our most comprehensive to date and arrives at an important moment when AI’s influence on society has never been more pronounced. This year, we have broadened our scope to more extensively cover essential trends such as technical advancements in AI, public perceptions of the technology, and the geopolitical dynamics surrounding its development. Featuring more original data than ever before, this edition introduces new estimates on AI training costs, detailed analyses of the responsible AI landscape, and an entirely new chapter dedicated to AI’s impact on science and medicine.
The AI Index report tracks, collates, distills, and visualizes data related to artificial intelligence (AI). Our mission is to provide unbiased, rigorously vetted, broadly sourced data in order for policymakers, researchers, executives, journalists, and the general public to develop a more thorough and nuanced understanding of the complex field of AI.

La IA Generativa y predictiva llega para obligar a las universidades a repensarse (una vez más) y tomar nuevas decisiones de diseño. Bienvenido este paradigma de producción y distribución de conocimiento. Sabemos que cuando a los sistemas complejos se los priva de estresores se vuelven débiles, como define la antifragilidad de Taleb (2012).
Esta problemática afectará en muy pocos años a nuestro día a día como gestores o profesores universitarios. Por esto, no es suficiente proponer y armar debates sobre el futuro de la educación con los usos de la IA. Más allá de cualquier conversación, ¿qué está haciendo usted lector ahora mismo para adaptarse?

AI, and specifically LLM (large language models), can help our students enhance their creative work. This is one of several reasons their use has become increasingly prevalent in education over the past few months. An LLM is a type of AI that mimics human intelligence and processes and analyses large amounts of data and patterns through statistical models. It also analyses the connection between words and phrases to improve content. In this resource, we provide tips for LLM prompt writing to help our students create characters for their creative projects.
