Welcome to the AI in Education podcast With Dan Bowen from Microsoft Australia and Ray Fleming from InnovateGPT It's a weekly chat about Artificial Intelligence in Education - what it is, how it works, and the different ways it is being used. It's not too serious, or too technical, and is intended to be a good conversation of background information. Of course, as well as getting it here on the website, you can also just subscribe to your normal podcast service:      “This podcast is produced by a Microsoft Australia & New Zealand employee, alongside an employee from InnovateGPT. The views and opinions expressed on this podcast are our own.”

This week's episode has a lot more news than research. But the research that we spend a bit of time on is the insights on how students in Australian universities are using AI. Really good insights for any educator or leader!
