When today's knowledge in generative AI and programming will be dated asap, how will the role of teachers change? How will teachers learn to ensure that graduates have the ‘right’ skills that industry demands? Johan and Joakim Lilliesköld talk in Swedish to KTH alumnus Henrik Kniberg (crisp.se) about practical applications of generative AI and how it will change both education and the need for programmers in the future.
