Abstract: The recent advancements in Generative Artificial intelligence (GenAI) technology have been transformative for the field of education. Large Language Models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT and Bard can be leveraged to automate boilerplate tasks, create content for personalised teaching, and handle repetitive tasks to allow more time for creative thinking. However, it is important to develop guidelines, policies, and assessment methods in the education sector to ensure the responsible integration of these tools. In this article, thematic analysis has been performed on seven essays obtained from professionals in the education sector to understand the advantages and pitfalls of using GenAI models such as ChatGPT and Bard in education. Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) has been performed on the essays to extract further insights from the text. The study found several themes which highlight benefits and drawbacks of GenAI tools, as well as suggestions to overcome these limitations and ensure that students are using these tools in a responsible and ethical manner.

Generative AI and Agency in Education: A Critical Scoping Review and Thematic Analysis [0.0]
This review examines the relationship between Generative AI (GenAI) and agency in education, analyzing the literature available through the lens of Critical Digital Pedagogy. We conducted an AI-supported hybrid thematic analysis that revealed three key themes: Control in Digital Spaces, Variable Engagement and Access, and Changing Notions of Agency. The findings suggest that while GenAI may enhance learner agency through personalization and support, it also risks exacerbating educational inequalities and diminishing learner autonomy in certain contexts.

LLM-based Interaction for Content Generation: A Case Study on the Perception of Employees in an IT department [85.1523466539595]
This paper presents a questionnaire survey to identify the intention to use generative tools by employees of an IT company. Our results indicate a rather average acceptability of generative tools, although the more useful the tool is perceived to be, the higher the intention seems to be. Our analyses suggest that the frequency of use of generative tools is likely to be a key factor in understanding how employees perceive these tools in the context of their work.
