‘Failure is not something to be ashamed of. I want my students to know why they were wrong'
AI is changing education, work, and judgment faster than most institutions can keep up.
In Episode #26 of The AI Lyceum®, I speak with Tina Austin, an AI educator, bioethics and computational biology lecturer, AI ethics adviser, and OpenAI presenter, about what it means to teach, think, and stay human in the age of AI. We explore how generative AI is reshaping the classroom, why students are anxious about the future of work, and why critical thinking matters more when machines can produce polished answers in seconds.
This is not a vague conversation about hype. It is a grounded one about what universities, businesses, and individuals should actually measure when they use AI. Tina argues that the goal is not speed for its own sake. It is better judgment, clearer reasoning, stronger ethics, and a more honest understanding of where AI helps and where it can mislead. The conversation is beyond thinking properly, Tina is designing learning environments where thinking is unavoidable, even with AI
