EDUCATION AND AI University of Perpetual Help System DALTA 44th Commencement Exercises PICC,Pasay City

Today marks the culmination of years of hard work, dedication, and unwavering commitment to education. As we stand on this stage, it is important to reflect on the significance of education and how it impacts society as a whole.

Education is the cornerstone of progress and development. It empowers individuals, transforms communities, and shapes nations. It is through education that we acquire knowledge, critical thinking skills, and values that enable us to tackle the challenges of the world.

As we delve deeper into the importance of education and its impact on society, we cannot ignore the advancements in technology that are shaping the way we learn, teach, and interact with knowledge.

One such groundbreaking innovation that has gained tremendous momentum in recent years is the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI). Just as education has long been recognized as a catalyst for progress, AI has the potential to revolutionize the educational landscape and redefine the way we acquire and apply knowledge. Its emergence has brought about a paradigm shift in education. It can personalize learning experiences, provide instant feedback, and enhance educational outcomes.

However, it is crucial to remember that education is not about acquiring knowledge from machines, but about the growth and revival of a nation. Education ensures that we not only equip ourselves with skills and expertise but also develop a sense of responsibility towards our society. It is through education that we cultivate empathy, compassion, and a commitment to social justice.

As we embrace the possibilities that artificial intelligence presents, we must also recognize the need for checks and balances. The government has a vital role to play in ensuring that AI is used responsibly and ethically. We must guard against the potential biases and inequalities that may arise from the use of AI in education. It is essential to strike a balance between embracing AI's capabilities and preserving the human touch in education.

Let us remember that Artificial Intelligence is not meant to replace the learner but to enhance their abilities. It is a tool that can amplify our human capacity and enable us to reach new heights. We must harness the power of AI to foster creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills among our students.

In the ever-changing landscape of technology and the world of academia, we must strive for excellence in everything we do. As graduates, you have demonstrated exceptional dedication to your studies, and it is in this pursuit of excellence that will make a lasting impact on our society.

Always remember to use your knowledge and skills to contribute to the betterment of our country. Be the catalysts for change, the innovators who shape the future of our beloved nation. Each field, whether it be medicine, business, engineering, or arts, holds the potential to create a lasting impact. It is up to you to nurture these seeds of excellence and watch them grow into a better future for our nation.

As you embark on this next chapter of your lives, remember the value of education, the power of AI, and the responsibility that comes with it. There is a need for checks and balances, and AI is merely a tool to enhance our capacities as human beings, rather than replace them.

Once again, I congratulate you as you step into a new world of possibilities. May you embrace every challenge and seize every opportunity. Lastly, may you be instrumental in creating a brighter, more prosperous future for our beloved country.
