Here is a feature short video 🎥 outlining the research and it’s importance: youtu.be/XwOWnFXNHAU?si=x4cY…

To thrive in the era of AI one needs develop their intuition, out of the box thinking and imagination 💪 By wisely combining AI assistance with human expertise and critical thinking, we can achieve faster and perhaps even better results than either could alone #FutureOfLearning

Students and professionals alike need to remember: AI is a tool, not an infallible source of truth (despite @elonmusk best efforts yet). Always cross-check important information, especially in technical fields. #FactChecking #STEM

This mistake highlights a crucial point: AI can produce convincing-sounding answers that can at times be fundamentally incorrect. It's up to us, the “expert users”, to apply our knowledge and critical thinking skills. #AILimitations

The AI missed a fundamental principle: the pressure at the open end of a hose is always equal to atmospheric pressure! This is basic fluid dynamics, but the AI overlooked it entirely. #FluidDynamics #PhysicsBasics I was glad my reply was correct & hilarious to see AI apologise😂

Knowing I couldn’t have gotten this wrong, I posed the same question but under a different angle, to help AI reach an answer without getting confused (as I do with my students - which is close to the didactic method Socrates would follow). Indeed, AI got it right this time!!

So I asked an AI about the pressure at the mouth of different hoses. The AI gave a detailed and well laid out word salad - which to a layperson sounded plausible (as did the commentary on the initial post). So clearly something wasn't right. Who is wrong: myself or the AI?🤔

This 🧵uses this brief but hilarious interaction with AI to perfectly illustrate why we should always question AI outputs. So let's talk about AI, fluid dynamics, and the importance of critical thinking! #AIEducation #CriticalThinking

A friend shared the following post testing their knowledge of basic fluid mechanics, noting how confused they were because the commentary was also all over the place. I gave them an answer but was interested to see why everyone was so confused. Even more when one can use AI…🧵

It has been a very busy and late semester this year. Glad to see a full house for the hydraulic engineering class. Best of luck to our undergraduates for the rest of the exams as well!
