Dr. Dan McQuillan:

I would not presume to step on the toes of people in the room when it comes to legislating for things. My emphasis really would be on taking AI as a diagnostic in the context of saying where people are - and, following on from what our colleague from the Electoral Commission said - talking about situations where they say that AI does seem to be an option because they are under incredible pressure and do not have enough resources and so on. That is such a universal narrative, wherever we look. It certainly is in the area of higher education. People say there is this AI thing that they can turn to. I would say it is always a point at which people should be asking, and this does rise up to the legislative level, what else they could do. If there really is not enough time to do that, why is there not enough time? If there really are not enough teachers, why are there not enough teachers? Is this really a matter of overall social resources? We were just talking about the amount of money that is flowing around the tech sector. Is it really that there are not enough resources to provide enough teachers or whatever? That provides the contextual and relational way of doing things, which, historically and currently, turns out to be far more reliable than turning to these magic machines.
