Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

11. Laws of Robotics
• Asimov proposed three “Laws of
Robotics ” and later added the
“zeroth law”
• Law 0: A robot may not injure
humanity or through inaction, allow
humanity to come to harm
• Law 1: A robot may not injure a
human being or through inaction,
allow a human being to come to
harm, unless this would violate a
higher order law
• Law 2: A robot must obey orders
given to it by human beings, except
where such orders would conflict
with a higher order law
• Law 3: A robot must protect its own
existence as long as such protection
does not conflict with a higher
order law

13. History of Robotics: I
• The first industrial robot:
UNIMATE
• 1954: The first programmable
robot is designed by George
Devol, who coins the term
Universal Automation. He later
shortens this to Unimation, which
becomes the name of the first robot
company (1962).
UNIMATE originally automated the
manufacture of TV picture tubes
14. History of Robotics: II
1978: The Puma (Programmable
Universal Machine for
Assembly) robot is developed by
Unimation with a General
Motors design support

17. Knowledgebase for Robotics
•Typical knowledgebase for the design and operation of robotics
systems
-Dynamic system modeling and analysis
-Feedback control
-Sensors and signal conditioning
-Actuators (muscles) and power electronics
-Hardware/computer interfacing
-Computer programming
Disciplines: mathematics, physics, biology, mechanical engineering,
electrical engineering, computer engineering, and computer science
19. Robot Base: Fixed v/s Mobile
Robotic manipulators used in
manufacturing are examples of
fixed robots. They can not
move their base away from the
work being done.
Mobile bases are typically
platforms with wheels or tracks
attached. Instead of wheels or
tracks, some robots employ legs
in order to move about.
21. Sensors
•Human senses: sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell
provide us vital information to function and survive
•Robot sensors: measure robot configuration/condition
and its environment and send such information to robot
controller as electronic signals (e.g., arm position,
presence of toxic gas)
•Robots often need information that is beyond 5 human
senses (e.g., ability to: see in the dark, detect tiny
amounts of invisible radiation, measure movement that is
too small or fast for the human eye to see)

Piezoelectric Effect
Flexiforce Sensor
22. Vision Sensors
Vision Sensor: e.g., to pick bins,
perform inspection, etc.
Part-Picking: Robot can handle
work pieces that are randomly piled
by using 3-D vision sensor. Since
alignment operation, a special parts
feeder, and an alignment pallete are
not required, an automatic system
can be constructed at low cost.
In-Sight Vision Sensors
23. Force Sensors
Force Sensor: e.g., parts
fitting and insertion, force
feedback in robotic surgery
Parts fitting and insertion: Robots
can do precise fitting and insertion
of machine parts by using force
sensor. A robot can insert parts that
have the phases after matching their
phases in addition to simply
inserting them. It can automate high-
skill jobs.
