I have clarified the distinction between over-delegating AI to assist me and using AI for routine tasks.
AI literacy is not about mastering technology, but about exercising professional sovereignty: understanding that AI is an assistant capable of generating "raw material," but only the educator possesses the judgment, ethics, and human sensitivity to transform it into a valuable learning experience. By delegating routine, low-stakes tasks, we are not being replaced; we are reclaiming the time needed for what no machine can replicate: genuine mentorship, critical validation, and the emotional care of our students.
I learn to use my time more efficiently if I just use AI to assist and not to create.
I learned that AI is most useful for routine tasks like organizing content, brainstorming ideas, and creating first drafts. I plan to use AI as a support tool to save time while reviewing and adapting the results to ensure they are accurate for my students.
I learned to really think about what I need help drafting first and the margin for error so that there is less time fixing the AI output.
Good point to refresh thoughts about AI replacing human interactions.
