AI is transforming Instructional Design, from accelerating course creation and assessments to personalizing learning paths. But while AI is fast and powerful, it isn't flawless. That's where Instructional Designers play a critical role. This session will show you how to treat AI as a co-pilot, not an autopilot, and keep your designs sharp, inclusive, and evidence-based.

Join Dr. Jill Stefaniak, Chief Learning Officer at Litmos, and Dr. Stephanie Moore, Associate Professor at the University of New Mexico, as they explore the biggest pitfalls of AI-generated learning, including reinforcing stereotypes, fueling the "learning styles" myth, and producing vague or ineffective objectives. You'll gain practical strategies for writing measurable objectives, setting ethical guardrails, and ensuring your training remains diverse, accessible, and grounded in research.

While AI can speed up production, it's the uniquely human qualities that transform content into meaningful learning experiences. Empathy, creativity, and contextual understanding aren't going anywhere, and our learning leaders will explore how leveraging these uniquely human skills will make Instructional Designers indispensable in an AI-powered world.

In this session conducted by Litmos, you will learn how to:

  • Use AI wisely without losing your critical eye
  • Replace myths with evidence-based design
  • Lean into your human strengths that AI can't match
