What happens when AI crashes into the classroom? When ChatGPT rolled out across the California State University (CSU) system, it sparked a wide range of faculty responses - from panic to full adoption. In My Robot Teacher, CSU professors Taiyo Inoue and Sarah Senk explore how generative AI is disrupting higher education, and what resistance, habituation, and adaptation really look like in real classrooms. My Robot Teacher is a podcast about AI and higher education, hosted by public university professors, produced by editaudio, and sponsored by the California Learning Lab.

    Ep06 - Algorithms Aren’t Neutral: Safiya Noble on AI, Bias, and Building Public‑Interest Technology

    Generative AI is reshaping classrooms and campuses, but with whose values, and at what cost? In this episode, Safiya Umoja Noble, author of Algorithms of Oppression and founder of the UCLA Center on Resilience and Digital Justice, joins Sarah and Taiyo to unpack why “neutral” AI isn’t neutral, why interdisciplinarity is hard but essential, and what a public‑interest technology ecosystem in higher ed could look like.

    Ep05 - Lost in Translation: Testing the Limits of AI Understanding

    In this episode, we talk with Madison Van Doren (AI Research & Strategy Manager at Appen) about the limits of AI translation, what AI safety practices like red-teaming reveal about model guardrails, and why humans in the loop remain essential. Madison explains adversarial prompting, how different large language models reflect the norms and incentives of their builders, and why common translation benchmarks reward surface accuracy while missing cultural nuance. At stake is a larger question: if AI mirrors our words but not our meanings, how can we trust it to serve as a safe partner in education and communication? We also explore big questions for educators and students: What skills should humans still master in an AI-saturated world? What tasks can responsibly be offloaded to machines? How should we redefine digital literacy for the age of generative AI?

    Ep04 - A New Hope [for AI in College Writing]

    How do we teach writing in the age of ChatGPT? On My Robot Teacher, hosts Taiyo Inoue and Sarah Senk talk with Carl Whithaus (Professor of Writing & Rhetoric; Director, University Writing Program, UC Davis) and Aparna Sinha (Associate Professor of Composition & Rhetoric, Cal Poly Maritime) about how AI is reshaping the composition classroom, and how educators can use LLMs to support critical thinking, metacognition, and student agency without flattening student voice. Key topics include: AI Literacy: Why teaching AI is like teaching sex ed: avoidance only creates more problems. Process Over Product: Designing meaningful writing assignments that keep students invested. Reflection & Metacognition: Helping students evaluate AI feedback, spot bias, and make informed choices. The Future of Writing: From interdisciplinarity to multimodal literacies in a possible “post-literate” world. 00:00-2:51 Chapter 1 - Why Meaningful Assignments Beat AI Shortcuts 2:52-17:38 Chapter 2 - AI Literacy is the New Sex Ed 17:39-30:15 Chapter 3 - Foundational Skills 30:16-36:44 Chapter 4 - Why Writing Still Matters (and how to make it Mean Something) 36:45-41:40 Chapter 5 - Can We Imagine a Post-Literate non-Dystopian World? 🔔 Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@myrobotteacher 🎧 Listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/my-robot-teacher/id1818032413 📝 Read full transcripts + extras: https://calearninglab.substack.com/s/my-robot-teacher-podcast 🌐 More about the show: https://www.myrobotteacher.ai 📨 Email us!  We’d love to hear from you!  myrobotteacherpod@gmail.com Follow us on:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/myrobotteacher/ YouTube: youtube.com/@myrobotteacher X: x.com/myrobotteacher Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/myrobotteacher.bsky.social Facebook: facebook.com/myrobotteacher Tags/ Keywords: AI in education, AI writing tools, teaching with AI, AI literacy, critical thinking, equity in education, composition pedagogy, code-meshing, ChatGPT in the classroom, higher education podcast, college writing, ChatGPT, generative AI, teaching and learning, peer feedback, UC Davis University Writing Program, Cal Poly Maritime Academy, PAIRR, California Education Learning Lab, Carl Whithaus, Aparna Sinha, Taiyo Inoue, Sarah Senk, My Robot Teacher, future of learning, editaudio

    Ep03 - The End of Literacy As We Know It - How ChatGPT Exposed What's Broken in Education

    What happens when AI forces us to confront what's broken about education? In this eye-opening conversation, Linguistics professor Pranav Anand (UC Santa Cruz) and English & Ethnic Studies professor Chesa Caparas (De Anza College) join Sarah and Taiyo, and argue that the panic over student "cheating" with ChatGPT is missing the real crisis. Spoiler alert: The problem isn't that students are using AI - it's that our entire educational system has been designed around assessments that a machine can now ace in seconds.  From the death of the five-paragraph essay to why "AI-proof" assignments are impossible, this episode challenges everything you think you know about teaching in the age of artificial intelligence. Discover why Humanities professors might be the secret weapon against AI manipulation, how emotional literacy became more important than technical skills, and why the future of education isn't about stopping AI - it's about fundamentally reimagining what learning actually means. 00:00 - 1:55 Chapter 1 Introduction 1:55 - 15:02 Chapter 2 AI Literacy and Humanities Inquiry 15:03 - 31:35 Chapter 3 “What the Hell is Education For?”  31:35 - 37:54 Chapter 4 The End of Writing as We Know It 37:54 - 48:16 Chapter 5 The New Critical Thinking Debate 🔔 Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@myrobotteacher 🎧 Listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/my-robot-teacher/id1818032413 📝 Read full transcripts + extras: https://calearninglab.substack.com/s/my-robot-teacher-podcast 🌐 More about the show: https://www.myrobotteacher.ai 📨 Email us!  We’d love to hear from you!  myrobotteacherpod@gmail.com Follow us on:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/myrobotteacher/ YouTube: youtube.com/@myrobotteacher X: x.com/myrobotteacher Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/myrobotteacher.bsky.social Facebook: facebook.com/myrobotteacher Tags/ Keywords: AI literacy, Humanities, Higher Education, ChatGPT technology, podcast, generative AI, teaching, learning, assessment, critical thinking, Pranav Anand, Chesa Caparas, Taiyo Inoue, Sarah Senk, My Robot Teacher, future of writing, future of learning, editaudio

    Ep01 - Resistance is Futile - and Brief

    What happens when ChatGPT crashes into the classroom? In this premiere episode of My Robot Teacher, Cal State University (CSU) professors Taiyo Inoue and Sarah Senk explore how faculty across public universities are reacting to the rise of generative AI in education. From panic to pedagogical adaptation, we dig into what resistance to AI really looks like - and why it often gives way to something stranger: habituation. We talk about how large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT are reshaping teaching, trust, and the purpose of assignments themselves. This isn’t just about prompts. It’s about power, policy, and the future of public higher ed.
