We are looking for people who possess a deep understanding of current AI practices and policies, or who have a strong interest in the ethical uses of AI in education. This committee will play a crucial role in shaping the future of AI integration in our schools, ensuring that it is used responsibly and effectively to enhance the learning experience for all students. If you are passionate about AI and its potential to transform education, we encourage you to apply and be part of this important initiative.

Goals of the Committee:

Committee application

The AI committee, consisting of approximately 15 members, will be selected based on several factors including expertise in artificial intelligence, experience in related fields, and a demonstrated commitment to ethical AI practices. The selection process will also consider diversity in terms of professional backgrounds, ensuring a wide range of perspectives and insights. Additionally, candidates' ability to collaborate effectively in a team setting and their track record of contributing to innovative projects will be key criteria. Due to the high level of interest and the limited number of positions available, we regret that we cannot accept all applicants. Furthermore, we are committed to enhancing diversity by actively seeking representation from underrepresented groups. This comprehensive approach aims to assemble a well-rounded committee capable of addressing the multifaceted challenges and opportunities presented by AI.
