The University of Delaware is using artificial intelligence to tap into thousands of instructor transcripts and videos to create interactive study tools, The Philadelphia Inquirer reported Tuesday. The university is starting with 12 years of lectures by Agnes Ly, an associate professor of psychological and brain sciences. The Inquirer reported that the lectures will be use to produce study materials that will be tested with students over the next semester, while an additional eight professors across various fields have also volunteered for when the program expands. “So rather than going out on the internet and finding flashcards on general psychology or borrowing a friend’s notes, it’s directly coming from the content of the course,” Erin Sicuranza, director of academic technology services, told the paper.
