How Does Gad Saad Use Grok?

Gad Saad only uses AI to ask very detailed questions. He entered the three health plans Ole Miss is offering into Grok because he does not understand 90% of the acronyms, and Grok told him to pick option one given his reality. Katie Miller called that a good use of AI.

Katie Miller asked whether Gad Saad lets students use AI to gather data while they work through the scientific method. He said no. He does let them use online data collection portals, so many experiments can be done online instead of requiring someone to come physically to the lab. She asked if he would worry about a student having AI collate the data, and if he uses Panagram to check for AI. He said he is not using Panagram.

Gad Saad has not done much teaching for nearly three years. He took a leave from Concordia because of threats he was facing there, and then he had a sabbatical. The flourishing of AI happened during the time he has not taught. Asked if he has graded any papers now that he is at Ole Miss, he said no. He is only teaching next semester. Katie Miller said she would be excited to see him grade a paper whose data is fully collated by AI. Gad Saad agreed it is going to be a challenge.
