Jared’s takeaways: 

1. Adapt or die; Generative AI is not going away. 
2. GAI should be treated like any other innovation. Users must have time to try it, and it must be seen as reliable and compatible with their work. The difference, though, is that the user must find the reliability and compatibility for themselves because GAI is a complex innovation.  
3. GAI is a standalone tool and also one that can be the backbone of bigger things. The next step for using GAI is to use it to create—treat it like a programming language or a medium through which to present content. 

Rob’s takeaways: 

1. Those working with GAI in education need to provide beneficial examples of AI use. 
2. Christian education needs a voice through control of its own GAI model. 
3. GAI use may erode trust on a larger scale than other tools in history.
