The field of AI is rapidly advancing, with significant developments in education and creative industries. A major direction of research is focused on understanding how AI can be effectively integrated into learning environments, including the use of generative AI tools, chatbots, and large language models. However, concerns about academic integrity, bias, and over-reliance on AI are also being addressed. Additionally, AI is being explored for its potential to enhance creative expression in fields such as acting, scriptwriting, and poetry. Another area of research is the development of AI-driven tools for specific contexts, such as voice interfaces for small businesses in Africa. Noteworthy papers in this area include 'Should AI Mimic People? Understanding AI-Supported Writing Technology Among Black Users' which highlights the importance of considering racial biases in AI-supported writing tools, and 'Theatrical Language Processing: Exploring AI-Augmented Improvisational Acting and Scriptwriting with LLMs' which introduces a new concept and tool for augmenting actors' creative expression.
