Excited to join Tai Munro this Wednesday at 11am EDT to help you and your students understand the ecological impact of generative AI with more nuance than either “Stop worrying” or “It’s the apocalypse.”

People say AI kills thinking.
I used it to argue with myself, sharpen ideas, and write my first book.
It’s not cheating — it’s Socrates in your pocket.
AI doesn’t replace thought. It provokes it.
This is the literacy we should be teaching.

Africa: The Need for Ai Literacy, Localisation in Africa: [Daily Trust] Artificial Intelligence (AI) is fast becoming a transformative force to reckon with across various sectors of human endeavour, offering unprecedented opportunities for innovation and growth. In Nigeria, while AI is still in its infant stages, there is a growing recognition of its potential to address local challenges and… http://newsfeed.facilit8.network/TLRm2F #ArtificialIntelligence #AILiteracy #Nigeria #AfricaInnovation #TechForGood

Mediale und technische Innovationen erzeugen neue Bildungsmöglichkeiten und neue Bildungsbedarfe. Welche Normierungen benötigen wir, um Beteiligung, Inklusion und Verantwortung beim Einsatz von #KI in der #Bildung zu stärken? 🤖 In unserer Reihe an der #JGUMainz untersucht Thomas Knaus diese Fragen aus Sicht der #Medienpädagogik. 📅 Heute um 18:15 Uhr im N1 und demnächst als Aufzeichnung.

🤔 Wow, Meta's #Llama #3.1 can recall 42% of a book that’s literally made for children—truly #groundbreaking stuff! 📚🎉 Surely this means AIs will now only be sued for copying less than half of every copyrighted book instead of the whole thing! 💼🤖

As usual, @eryk.bsky.social explains this paper perfectly: The so-called “reasoning models” are not reasoning at all – not even by their own industry definitions.

What looks like “structured thinking” is just a longer, more confident hallucination.

In today’s tech-driven world, knowing how to ask AI the right questions is just as important as reading and writing. Teaching students to prompt AI helps them think clearly, ask better questions, and solve problems creatively. It’s a new kind of literacy—one that connects with future jobs and daily life. Helping kids learn this skill early makes them smart digital citizens and confident learners.

The educator panic over AI is real, and rational.
I've been there myself. The difference is I moved past denial to a more pragmatic question: since AI regulation seems unlikely (with both camps refusing to engage), how do we actually work with these systems?
The "AI will kill critical thinking" crowd has a point, but they're missing context.
Critical reasoning wasn't exactly thriving before AI arrived: just look around. The real question isn't whether AI threatens thinking skills, but whether we can leverage it the same way we leverage other cognitive tools.
We don't hunt our own food or walk everywhere anymore.
We use supermarkets and cars. Most of us Google instead of visiting libraries. Each tool trade-off changed how we think and what skills matter. AI is the next step in this progression, if we're smart about it.
The key is learning to think with AI rather than being replaced by it.
That means understanding both its capabilities and our irreplaceable human advantages.

AI isn't going anywhere. Time to get strategic:
Instead of mourning lost critical thinking skills, let's build on them through cognitive delegation—using AI as a thinking partner, not a replacement.
This isn't some Silicon Valley fantasy:
Three decades of cognitive research already mapped out how this works:
Cognitive Load Theory:
Our brains can only juggle so much at once. Let AI handle the grunt work while you focus on making meaningful connections.
Distributed Cognition:
Naval crews don't navigate with individual genius—they spread thinking across people, instruments, and procedures. AI becomes another crew member in your cognitive system.
Zone of Proximal Development
We learn best with expert guidance bridging what we can't quite do alone. AI can serve as that "more knowledgeable other" (though it's still early days).
The table below shows what this looks like in practice:

Critical reasoning vs Cognitive Delegation
Old School Focus:
Building internal cognitive capabilities and managing cognitive load independently.
Cognitive Delegation Focus:
Orchestrating distributed cognitive systems while maintaining quality control over AI-augmented processes.
We can still go for a jog or go hunt our own deer, but for reaching the stars we, the Apes do what Apes do best: Use tools to build on our cognitive abilities. AI is a tool.

Against #AILiteracy: have we actually found a way to #ReverseLearning?
Miriam Reynoldson
Apr 19, 2025
"So let’s get one thing out of the way: I think '#AI literacy' is a dangerous device of neoliberal education and it deserves to be dismissed out of hand.
"I don’t like that declaring this will immediately turn off half my audience, but I think it’s only fair to say it up front.
"This has a lot to do with my feelings about generative AI technologies, their developers, their #BloodDiamond genesis, and their ugly consequences for those who use them and those who are impacted by their use.
But it has a lot more to do with what literacy is."
