Responsible AI: Ethical Use

At Tec de Monterrey, we see technology as a powerful ally in achieving our educational goals. When used correctly, it facilitates access to information, creates knowledge, and opens doors to learning and social well-being. AI holds enormous potential to benefit our community, provided it is used ethically and responsibly in the educational processes, projects, and activities of our institution. 

As technology advances, we face significant challenges, such as ensuring data quality and understanding its impact on decision-making. While AI complements human work and boosts efficiency, it is crucial to use it responsibly to avoid biases and maximize its benefits. For this reason, we have created resources and guidelines to guide the ethical use of AI tools in teaching and learning processes.

The Future of AI

In recent years, AI has advanced significantly thanks to neural networks and large volumes of data. However, some experts believe that simply increasing the size of models will no longer yield significant benefits, calling for more creative ways to improve. 

Access to quality data is crucial for AI’s progress. Fields like biology and healthcare hold immense potential. Visual and video data will unlock new opportunities in areas like medicine, robotics, and automation. 

Another trend is the development of autonomous agents—systems that make decisions and adapt in real-time—revolutionizing sectors like logistics and education with smarter solutions. 

While we will see advancements in visual models with applications in medicine and security, challenges remain, including improving interaction with the physical world and common-sense reasoning. Tec de Monterrey is committed to preparing new generations to lead in this field, ensuring the ethical and fair development of AI.

Educational Artificial Intelligence Strategy

At Tecnológico de Monterrey, we use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to transform the way we teach and learn, promoting the development of professionals who integrate AI into their discipline. Our approach is centered on three key strategies:

Foundations of AI to empower human abilities:
We aim for students to develop key AI-related skills—such as critical thinking, ethics, and innovation—to enhance their performance in a world where AI is increasingly relevant.

Leveraging AI for teaching and learning processes:
Preparing and supporting faculty is a priority. Our strategy includes training activities, exploration spaces, and innovation initiatives that help educators become familiar with AI tools and design learning experiences that integrate these technologies. We offer a wide range of development opportunities, from introductory courses to specialized bootcamps.

Development of professionals who integrate AI into their discipline:
We strive to ensure that our students graduate with the ability to use artificial intelligence technologies specific to their field of study.
 

AI Summit: Faculty projects

The AI Summit is an event launched as part of Tecnológico de Monterrey’s efforts to support and train its teaching community in the strategic use of AI. The goal of the event is to create practical solutions that address real teaching and learning needs through AI tools.

In the 2024 edition, 180 faculty members participated, presenting projects in which they integrated AI tools into learning activities and instructional sequences to improve teaching and enrich classroom learning experiences.

The event's projects focused on areas such as: Tool application, Assessment and feedback, Development of disciplinary competencies, Personalized learning and tutoring, Simulations, and Immersive environments.

Currently, these projects are being implemented in classes to measure their impact on student learning, ensuring the ethical and responsible use of this technology. Future editions of the event are expected to lead to the development of more projects that enhance the use of AI within various disciplines.
