About this episode

In this episode of Deep Learning Dialogues, hosts Whitney McKinley and Katrina Gouett engage with Giancarlo Brotto, an educator and AI advocate, to explore the intersection of education, artificial intelligence, and ethics. They discuss the importance of viewing AI as a gift that should serve humanity, the varying perspectives of students and educators on AI, and the need for moral discernment in its use. The conversation emphasizes the role of educators in guiding students through the complexities of AI, the necessity of integrating AI into the curriculum, and the importance of vulnerability and co-learning in the classroom. Brotto calls for a collective effort to ensure that faith-based institutions lead the way in navigating AI's challenges and opportunities.


Giancarlo Brotto is a dynamic Canadian educator, strategist, and keynote speaker with over two decades of experience helping schools and ministries harness technology to better serve students. A former university and secondary mathematics teacher, he transitioned into leadership roles and founded PAVE EDU, a company that guides school systems, governments, and businesses through AI adoption. His work focuses on preparing educators and families to thrive in an AI-infused world by grounding innovation in ethics and social-emotional learning. Within the Catholic community, he is known for his presentation Navigating Faith and Wisdom, where he encourages using a moral compass to encounter AI as a gift that aligns with Catholic social teachings.
