Abstract
The advent of AI generators such as chatGPT is significantly affecting the workplace as well as teaching and learning in higher education. This includes education in systems analysis, design, and programming. Working IT professionals will routinely rely on AI generation, we believe. Consequently, students should learn to leverage AI tools. We describe a way to prepare systems analysts and developers for a professional environment in which AI generation is ubiquitous and we explain an approach to evaluating graduate work prepared with the aid of AI generation. It is based on thevalue addedin students’ work: their chosen prompt sequences and their edits, deletions, and additions to AI-generated material. Although professionals are judged by their products, we believe that value-added will be a key professional goal in the AI-rich environments of the future because it distinguishes the end-products of professionals who better leverage AI.
