Generative AI for Kids, Parents, and Teachers
My son is going to grow up in a completely different world that is filled with generative AI (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, LLama, etc.). I think this is a world of possibility, creativity, and deep thought that will enrich the way we think and solve problems. I want to make sure that my son is set up for success in this new world and understands how to use generative AI in a way that helps him learn, create, and solve problems. Even though generative AI seems obvious to use, it isn't. Really learning to innovate and succeed with generative AI requires a change in mindset about the way we use it and how we solve problems. We have to teach people to think more, not less about what they are doing. I spent the last year working with my son to empower him with the skills to use generative AI to augment and amplify his critical thinking and creativity. I distilled this teaching into a series of courses that you can use to help teach your kids, either at home or in the classroom, these same skills. This is the first of these courses. Some of the things that we have done that you will learn to do with your kids: - Take pictures of anything and have generative AI turn the photos into world records that you can fact check - Interactively brainstorm how to build anything out of any material using generative AI as your partner - Invent new games from photos of everyday objects I teach a course on Prompt Engineering, which is the study of how you converse and solve problems with generative AI that 100,000s of people have enrolled in. I have gotten to hear about how companies all over the world are changing the future of work with generative AI. These courses are specifically designed to help you teach kids to succeed in this new world. This course is meant for parents and teachers to do with kids. You watch the videos, preview the exercises, and then lead kids through the fun activities. You decide what to show and how to best communicate with your kids. Along the way, not only will your kids learn to innovate with generative AI, but it will reshape how you use it personally.

D'un infini à l'autre
Partez à la découverte de l'infiniment petit et de l'infiniment grand, en compagnie de physiciens et de physiciennes qui vont vous faire découvrir les liens entre la structure de la matière aux distances les plus petites et l'organisation de l'Univers aux distances les plus grandes ce jour, et entre les outils scientifiques utilisés pour les étudier. Vous découvrirez que de nombreux messagers venus de notre Univers (le photon, les neutrinos, ou encore les rayons cosmiques) sont aussi des objets d'intérêt pour les physiciens qui étudient la matière aux échelles les plus petites. Vous verrez aussi que l'histoire de l'Univers (comme la formation de la matière et la disparition de l'antimatière) peut être comprise grâce aux progrès de l'infiniment petit. Notre compréhension des deux infinis peut ainsi progresser harmonieusement, chaque infini s'appuyant sur les avancées et les outils de l'autre. Ce cours en français fait partie du MOOC "Voyages de l'infiniment grand à l'infiniment petit", conçus par des physiciens et des physiciennes du Labex P2IO (Physique des 2 Infinis et des Origines, IPP et Université Paris-Saclay) regroupant des laboratoires de physique de l'infiniment grand et de l'infiniment petit situés à Orsay et Saclay. Les différents parcours de ce MOOC vous montreront les connaissances et les énigmes de l'infiniment grand et de l'infiniment petit, les relations que ces deux infinis entretiennent, et les liens de ces découvertes avec la société : https://www.coursera.org/learn/physique-2-infinis-infiniment-petit https://www.coursera.org/learn/physique-2-infinis-infiniment-grand https://www.coursera.org/learn/physique-2-infinis-liens https://www.coursera.org/learn/physique-2-infinis-et-nous Le MOOC "Voyages de l'infiniment grand à l'infiniment petit" a été conçu avec le soutien financier du Labex P2IO (Physique des 2 Infinis et des Origines) présenté sur www.labex-p2io.fr (IPP et Université Paris-Saclay)
