“We develop skill by relying on AI.”

At the Integrated Center of FP del Mar it is clear to them that the development of socioemotional competencies is fundamental. Roberto Suárez Malagón, Head of the Accreditation Unit of this institution, tells us about his experience working with our Human AI assistant.

“The use of the Human AI tool allows us to have a diagnosis for each student and for them to know what these socioemotional competencies are, to think, to reflect and to work in the center and also in the field of employability, to see how we can reach a better integration.”

“That individual report is a basis to work on: from it, getting to know the student better, we follow up to find out how they have developed those competencies and how they have adapted.”

“No student in any course, job or vocational training activity should finish his or her studies without being able to analyze his or her socioemotional competencies, aptitudes, in short, character formation.”

Thank you, Roberto, for sharing your experience with Human AI!

“More relevant, more human.”

On Thursday, May 11, at the Metropolitan Design Center in the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina, an event took place that brought together more than 700 professionals, especially from the Human Resources area, where experiences were lived simultaneously, allowing to offer a wide range of content and formats. The Mercer Journey #35, “More relevant, more human”, a 360º event that brought the view of experts in economics, global talent issues and trends; as well as different challenges to lead in the “tech” era, manage talent by skills and build an employer brand.

Maria Beunza Mijimolle, CEO of Human AI participated along with Melania Ottaviano, commercial agent in the country.

“Being in a space where they talk about the most innovative in the field of talent development, in an event of this nature, with more than 700 participants and also with a company of enormous trajectory as Mercer Latin America, is already a fantastic alliance for us,” says Maria.

Among the panels, they had the opportunity to listen to Ivana Thornton, Mercer’s talent expert. They participated in different talks on HR trends, in which issues related to socio-emotional competencies, work and personal wellbeing, risk prevention and professional development were very relevant.

Human AI was present in the Patio Tech, a technological space with different start-ups and platforms with innovative proposals and applications.

Melania tells us that it was “a space where we could share, through the tutorial, a quick overview of the usefulness, why and what Human AI is for. Through a QR code, interested users, most of them from HR and recognized agencies in Argentina, could access a test. We had the opportunity to enter into dialogue with potential clients and strategic allies”.

Both had the opportunity to show the application to Cecilia Inés Giordano, CEO of Mercer Latin America, and Diana Mondino, renowned economist in Argentina. Several entities, renowned companies and organizations from different sectors, were interested in the ease of being able to work without tests and questionnaires.

“There is the possibility of doing things better, of doing them much faster, of adapting more to people, of personalizing more the professional development, the career, the needs and concerns of each one.” “People are eager to use new solutions that allow them to move forward. Of course, in Latin America there is this concern. We have had many meetings with the education sector, with ministers, with consulting firms, with sports clubs… everywhere there is this concern for developing competencies, soft skills and not just cognitive skills,” says María.

The power of self-knowledge: AI and human identity

AI at the service of self-knowledge

As humans we are rational beings: we know, we know ourselves and we have consciousness. Three areas in which artificial intelligence only performs one: knowledge, but can AI know us better than our own mother? Even more, can AI know us better than we know ourselves?

Deep Blue, the machine that managed to beat the renowned master Kasparov in the game of chess, possessed a vast understanding of chess, but lacked the ability to perceive itself. AlphaGo, the creation of DeepMind, has achieved supremacy in various complex strategic games, exhibiting dazzling knowledge in those fields, but lacking understanding of other aspects and possessing no self-awareness. Dall-E 2, the artificial intelligence developed by OpenAI, stands out for its broad algorithmic domain, however, it has no self-awareness about it.

We can say then that AI can know more than humans, but always objectively, algorithmically and partially; not humanly and holistically. Knowing a lot does not imply being aware of your being as a person. So, could AI help us to know ourselves better? It can help us to enhance our self-knowledge of “how I am”: skills, aptitudes, capabilities, personality traits, competencies, etc. but it will never be able to access who I am, a task that is up to each person to discover for themselves.

Knowing oneself is the starting point for personal growth and integral development. Through self-knowledge, people can understand their strengths, weaknesses, values and motivations. This enables them to make more informed decisions, set realistic goals and build more authentic and meaningful relationships.

Self-knowledge is a basic and continuous learning process with respect to the rest of possible learning, precisely because it treats the subject that knows as an object of itself. Is not the camera prior to the photograph, the mold to the adobe, the painter to the mural?

“The main learning difficulty and the main problem of humanity could be to develop a foundation of education aimed at gradually and effectively finding out who we essentially are. Because, if we don’t know this, how are we going to recognize what we want or why we do things?”

Agustín de la Herrera Gascón, PhD in Education. Professor at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid -UAM.

Self-knowledge for action

Self-knowledge is a basic condition to be able to make ethical decisions, that is, to decide as humans, which is still a strange way for AI. Knowing oneself better as a person implies being able to decide better and therefore act ethically and responsibly according to who we are. Self-knowledge is an ongoing process that involves being in tune with our thoughts, emotions and actions. By knowing our strengths and weaknesses, values and goals; we can become authentically ourselves and therefore make decisions in coherence with our identity.

Fostering self-knowledge in and from one’s own education, from the classroom, from one’s own subject; goes beyond the accumulation of academic knowledge and technical skills; students are given the opportunity to explore their identity, develop greater self-awareness and the possibility to build a solid foundation for continuous learning and development; in addition to being able to facilitate them to identify their true motivations, make decisions aligned with their values and be able to find meaning and purpose in life.

INTERNATIONAL FORUM ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

More technological, more human

FIIA 2023, International Forum on Artificial Intelligence, is proposed as a space for international dialogue to discuss the present and future of artificial intelligence. On the first day organized by the Universidad Tecnológica Nacional and Ticmas; Melania Ottaviano, HumanAI advisor, and Susel Jacquet, from the Ticmas team; talked with Patricio Zunini about how technology can become a useful tool to develop social-emotional learning.

More and more voices in the intellectual sphere are calling not only to take into account the growing insensitivity that can accompany the rise of technology, but also to continue to proactively develop our human condition.

(DE)HUMANIZATION?

If, instead of apocalyptic dehumanization, technology were a tool for developing socioemotional skills? This question was the key to the dialogue between Melania Ottaviano and Susel Jacquet at FIIA2023, on August 30 in the auditorium of the Regional Faculty of Córdoba of the National Technological University.

Our advisor in Argentina, Melania Ottaviano, director of the Diploma in Educational Innovation at Universidad Siglo 21 and part of the academic team of the Specialization in Virtual Learning Environments at Universidad Católica Argentina, stated that “it is extremely important to accompany all the development of Artificial Intelligence with human development”.

In the educational ecosystem, Melania continued, “it is increasingly important to begin to organically include emotional intelligence or everything that has to do with human skills in the teaching curriculum. These skills, Artificial Intelligence obviously cannot execute them, it cannot replace us (…) so it is key to include these types of skills, especially for the challenges of today’s world, for our students and also for teachers.” In a world full of technology, algorithms and big data, it is urgent to develop our more human side, since “we obviously run the risk that if we do not do it, we will not accompany this evolution”.

MORE SELF-KNOWLEDGE

“What recommendations would you give for working on the socioemotional dimension in an institution in an organization, not just in a school?”.

Regarding the development of the socioemotional part, Melania advocates for a boost in self-knowledge: “We know very little about our students, although we know if our students are good in Mathematics, Logic, Language… we know little about their level of leadership, empathy, frustration tolerance… and that is one of the challenges we also have today as teachers; to begin to know them to generate plans that can strengthen these skills”.

Self-knowledge is a fundamental part in order to develop this socioemotional dimension, and not only for students, but also for teachers and managers, since “there are few spaces in the institutions for self-knowledge, and it is essential to know what training they have and what challenges of these human skills are also necessary to develop in them”.

To this end, she stated: “I believe that the commitment of the management team is key, and to know that these are projects that are designed and must be sustained in the long term. We are very used to wanting to get results quickly and when we work with human skills, although they are malleable, they obviously require time, which is why I say that measurement is also key”.

MORE HUMANE

From this need arises the innovative proposal of Human AI: “We combine Artificial Intelligence and human development.Precisely through this application – which was developed with artificial intelligence – we can obtain a report, an analysis of our students, of more than 30 socioemotional skills; and from there we can make a project, a planning; knowing what are the opportunities for improvement and in which ones to continue growing and strengthening”.

Melania, commenting on the relationship between technology and the socioemotional part, affirmed that it is necessary to “find a balance between the use of this technology and seek a connection more and more to our essence as humans. There are always ethical limits, and in Human AI’s work there is strict data control to preserve the identity and sensitive information of each individual user. The preservation of identity is part of the ethical dimension of the company, because it is precisely sensitive information that you are having about a person, and it is very relevant”.

But she urged that this ethical debate “must be taken to the inside of each institution”. Although debates are taking place at the international and national level, I believe that we must open spaces for discussion in each institution. This is moving very fast, if we wait for the regulations to come from somewhere else, we will never be up to the task. There is a lot to discuss, some people are afraid of it, but I think we have to see it as an opportunity”.

“Oh the AI!”

Creativity versus AI, the impact of AI in professions and trades, the use of GPT chat in the classroom, AI-based avatars as a teaching tool and ethics and values in the use of AI were some of the issues addressed by the various speakers at the conference for teachers “Oh the AI” organized by the Navarre Employment Service at the Civican in Pamplona; moderated by Rubén León, a journalist from Spanish Television.

“Education has to change, it can no longer be focused on the industrial model and must open doors to a digital world” said teacher Rubén Jiménez, in the block on creativity and AI.

Carlos Fernández de Vigo – film director, screenwriter and video game creator – spoke about the AI revolution in our lives as a historic opportunity. From Emotional Films – a new interactive audiovisual format that aims to offer audiences an experience that adapts in real time to their emotions and other key audience data – they have carried out projects with AI, among others, with the Cervantes Institute. “Movies are not the same depending on who is watching them and at what time they are watching them, they evolve with the viewer.”

Their vision of technology is philosophical and includes many sociological, pedagogical, psychological, neuromarketing, lawyer and engineer profiles. “We are people who want our creations to live on. We have made short films with people who were recycled from other sectors and thanks to technology they did the reskilling”.

Francesc Pujol – writer and teacher at the University of Navarra – with his vision of active network explorer started using ChatGPT because he imagined a radical impact on the learning process, both his own and regulated. He has learned to integrate it from practice and testing, without waiting to be told about it and advocating that all student work should be delivered together with the methodology used to carry it out, the screenshots of the questions to ChatGPT, assuming that from now on it will be an inevitable and indeed recommended use.

“You don’t have to wait to be an expert to use ChatGPT, no high training is necessary and it has a lot of self-learning. We have to give ourselves the right to explore and make mistakes in the use of AI” says Francesc. “ChatGPT should be used to ask about things we know, this seems counter-intuitive but it involves improving the things you already do.” Conclusion, let ChatGPT work for you and not instead of you, let it be an assistant and not an agent.

Finally, Elena Alemán is president of LucIA foundation, an initiative that aims to achieve a degree of knowledge, development and implementation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) ecosystems equivalent to those achieved in recent decades in the field of renewable energies. For his part, he presented the topic “Ethics and values in AI”.

Good uses? AI is making our lives easier, to help us with more global issues: health, environment, research thanks to a lot of rapidly processed data. Dark” uses? Since AI decides and generates content, it is important to know with what values and criteria it has been trained and the ownership of the data.

“Technology is ahead of legislation, in Europe a regulation is going to be generated in the first quarter of the year 24. What can we do? Training, communication and AI to combat AI.”

AEDIPE Congress. Empowering talent

Every year AEDIPE – The Spanish Association of People Management and Development – holds an International Congress with the aim of creating a space for HR professionals. A Congress in which to learn, update their knowledge, share experiences, practices and discuss the most current issues in People Management.

This year, the AEDIPE Aragón delegation welcomed 300 HR professionals on September 28 and 29 to learn and discuss “People and Sustainability” at the 56th International Congress.

“The intelligent use of technology, promotion, integration, team welfare, creativity in decision making, always subordinating it to people, are the main themes of this meeting”.

Pedro Ribes, National President of Aedipe.

Human AI at the service of talent

Being sponsors of the Congress, part of the Human AI team – María Beunza – CEO; Noelia Sanz – COO; and Iñigo Benito – Innovation manager – attended ready to learn and provide solutions for professional development and employability with our artificial intelligence tool at the service of people management, profile selection and emotional well-being of the team.

One of our challenges is to address digital, cultural and human transformation in companies to help talent management professionals from technological innovation.

Human AI puts AI and psycholinguistics at the service of social-emotional competences”

Our priority is the person and for this our best ally is artificial intelligence. It is the HR professionals themselves who put into context the knowledge provided by Human AI through a personalized report of the person being evaluated.

This report – made from a natural language text of the person – offers the evaluation of 35 softskills and the five traits based on the OCEAN Model. It is in turn capable of providing group and customized reports according to the needs of the users. This eliminates the need for tedious questionnaires, avoids self-perception bias and enables the HR department to assess and develop the emotional and social skills of their team or to select the right profiles.

Human AI saves time and money in contrast to traditional psychometric tests. It is capable of receiving both written texts and voice notes, which are automatically transcribed without retaining biometric information. Human AI guarantees user privacy and data security at all times. We are committed to developing ethical and responsible AI.

If you are an HR professional, join the challenge of empowering and developing talent in an effective, simple and reliable way.

AI and Emotional Education – SIMO EDUCATION

Under the slogan “Education in the age of Artificial Intelligence: exploring new frontiers” SIMO EDUCACIÓN – the International Exhibition of Educational Technology and Innovation – brought together in November the leading brands in technology and cutting-edge digital content, publishing groups, technology distributors, and educational content and management platforms.

This technological and educational event – organized by IFEMA MADRID and with the collaboration of Educación 3.0 – presented to the teaching community the progress of teaching and learning processes, school management and education and training, with a wide range of content aimed at all stages of education. This last edition was attended by 125 companies from 11 countries and was visited by around 10,000 professionals.

FOUR PILLARS 

A presentation that shows the current and future trends in which technology, innovation and pedagogy play an essential role, both in the teaching activity and in the progress towards quality education, fostering creativity, motivation and emotional well-being of students, as well as market opportunities and innovation in the sector.

All of this is aligned with the UNESCO 2021 report, which refers to the transformative capacity of technology and innovation in education systems and the need for the commitment of all stakeholders, including governments, educators, learners, civil society and the private sector.

In this context, SIMO EDUCATION 2023 has focused on four pillars:

  1. Technology and innovation for the classroom and learning, attending to its value for the classroom and the improvement of student performance;
  2. The potential and weight that eSports are gaining in the education sector as a tool to motivate students and improve their skills;
  3. Mental health-emotional education, aligned with the World Health Organization;
  4. and Dual Vocational Training, which has proven to be effective in preparing young people for the workplace.

In a transversal way, the aim was to make visible the applied artificial intelligence, a technology that is transforming education and that allows to personalize learning according to the needs of each student.

AI and Emotional Education

Socioemotional competencies are fundamental in the personal and professional development of students and, although scientific evidence and international organizations such as the OECD and the EU emphasize their importance, assessing them has always been a challenge for teachers.

In this context Human AI enters SIMO EDUCATION as one of the eight technological innovation startups presented in the space SHOW UP! An area dedicated to give visibility to entrepreneurs with new technological proposals for the education sector.

Human AI is a technology and innovation tool at the service of emotional education, a solution that combines AI and psycholinguistics capable of evaluating, assessing and developing the personality and socioemotional competences of students from written texts offering objective, immediate and reliable personalized reports.

The Human AI team was in one of the booths of the SHOW UP! space showing how technology at the service of education can help to personalize and develop the socioemotional education of students.
