She suggests AI could instead support learning through tutor-like nudges, questions, and hints that deepen students' thinking rather than replace their work, alongside more meaningful, cheating-resistant assessments. She also urges civic-minded technologists to build widely used information commons to improve access to reliable information. Minow says these responses require people to learn how to use and regulate AI and to educate users about the costs of using it mindlessly. ### Source excerpt In Compton Lecture, the distinguished legal scholar warns of potential "loss of the Enlightenment" while suggesting ways innovations can meet our civic and cultural needs. ## MIT students gain a humanist lens on technical innovation in Tulsa, Oklahoma DevFeed: [MIT students gain a humanist lens on technical innovation in Tulsa, Oklahoma]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: PKG Center Published: 2026-09-25T20:15:00Z Content type: news Language: en Sources: [MIT AI News]() Topics: [Data Science](), [data](), [AI Development](), [decision-making]() Tags: [ai](), [alexandra-leviness](), [alison-badgett](), [art-culture-and-technology](), [artificial-intelligence](), [black-tech-street](), [cherokee-nation](), [cities](), [classes-and-programs](), [code-tulsa](), [commonwealth-fusion-systems-cfs](), [communities](), [computer-science-and-technology](), [data](), [data-science](), [data-sovereignty](), [education-teaching-academics](), [ethics](), [governance](), [health-sciences-and-technology](), [humanities](), [indigenous-mit-students](), [k-12-education](), [mit](), [mit-pkg-center](), [muscogee-creek-nation](), [pkg-center-for-social-impact](), [pregnancy-risk-assessment-monitoring-system-prams](), [public-health](), [school-of-humanities-arts-and-social-sciences](), [stem-education](), [students](), [technical](), [technology-and-society](), [tulsa-advanced-sciences-camp-tasc](), [urban-coders-guild](), [vippy-yee](), [volunteering-outreach-public-service]() ### AI overview An MIT Code.Tulsa internship program gave students experience applying AI, data science, and technical skills alongside community-based learning.

Both fields remain in responses for the time being and are slated for removal in an unspecified future release. Starting April 12, 2020, specified password settings become immutable and always return `true` for K-12 Education Free and Pro accounts with a single host. The excerpt names scheduling, instant-meeting, and PMI password fields; it says Free accounts with CC may still adjust the setting. It does not provide the full endpoint lists for these password fields. ### Source excerpt In accordance with the removal of the Attention Tracking feature in Zoom, we have made the following breaking changes to the V2 REST API effective upon the release April 3rd, 2020: Deprecating "attentiveness_score" field in Meeting, Webinar Participants Report APIs. The API Responses to your requests on the following APIs will always return an empty value for the ("attentiveness_score") field. GET /v2/report/meetings/{meetingId}/participants GET /v2/report/webinars/{webinarId}/participants 2. Deprecating "attention_tracking" field in User, Group, and Account APIs. The API Responses to your GET requests on the following APIs will always return a "false" value. GET /v2/accounts/{accountId}/settings PATCH /v2/accounts/{accountId}/settings GET /v2/accounts/{accountId}/lock_settings PATCH /v2/accounts/{accountId}/lock_settings GET /v2/groups/{groupId}/settings PATCH /v2/groups/{groupId}/settings GET /v2/groups/{groupId}/lock_settings PATCH /v2/groups/{groupId}/lock_settings GET /v2/users/{userId}/settings PATCH /v2/users/{userId}/settings We will continue to present the fields listed above in the API responses for the time being, but responses for these fields will return either an empty value or "false", as indicated above. In a TBD future release, we will remove these two fields entirely. 3. Beginning April 12th, 2020, password-related settings can no longer be modified (immutable, always returning TRUE) for K-12 Education accounts that are Free or Pro (single host). These password-related settings are enabled by default, and can be changed by the owner/admin on: free accounts, or Pro accounts (with only one single host license). NOTE: Free Accounts with CC are permitted to adjust this setting. The above changes are relevant for the following fields of the given APIs: The "require_password_for_scheduling_new_meetings" field, "require_password_for_instant_meetings" field, and "require_password_for_pmi_meetings") field on these APIs: GET /v2/accounts/{accountId}/settings
