Emerging technologies and tools have the potential to perpetuate longstanding biases and to create inequities. They can also be used as assistive tools for those with disabilities and at a systems level to mitigate inequities. What do critical and thoughtful approaches to using AI tools through the lens of equity look like? How might they help our students? What concerns do we have, and what affordances do we see as members of and institution working toward an inclusive and equitable learning environment?
