In My Robot Teacher, CSU professors Taiyo Inoue and Sarah Senk explore how generative AI is disrupting higher education, and what resistance, habituation, and adaptation really look like in real classrooms.

How can AI summon the wisdom of the crowd without the stupidity of the mob? In Episode 12 of My Robot Teacher, Sarah Senk and Taiyo Inoue talk with Kim Polese—co-founder of CrowdSmartAI and Common Good AI—about collective intelligence, deliberative tech, and a different vision of AI: not as a machine for generating answers, but as a facilitator that helps groups think better together. From enterprise strategy and citizen assemblies to seminar pedagogy, the conversation explores what happens when AI stops generating answers and becomes a facilitator for collective intelligence: surfacing tacit knowledge, preserving quieter voices, and helping institutions process forms of disagreement that usually disappear into noise.
