"AI helps us to learn, it can serve as a tutor, it can be anything you want it to be, depending on the prompt you write," says Omorogbe Uyiosa, known as "Uyi" by his friends, a student from the Edo Boys High School, in Benin City, Nigeria. His school was one of the beneficiaries of a pilot that used generative artificial intelligence (AI) to support learning through an after-school program.
I could see a world where an AI teaches the mechanics of music, but is not relied on for evaluation of the students imagination in applying the mechanics.
When I was in art classes I wanted the class to teach me the techniques I did not know, but I was usually disappointed.
Like my life drawing classes would be me drawing images, and then getting judged on /what I already knew how to do/.
What I felt I would have benefited from was more along the lines of “here is three different shading techniques and how they can be used” or “here are three ways to use oil paints you’ve not used before.”
I always had ideas of images to create, what I could have benefited from was intros to more tools and ways to use those tools.
I could see an AI being able to do that for students of the arts.
