Generative AI tools introduce new and accessible forms of media creation for youth. They also raise ethical concerns about the generation of fake media, data protection, privacy and ownership of AI-generated art. Since generative AI is already being used in products used by youth, it is critical that they understand how these tools work and how they can be used or misused. In this work, we facilitated students' generative AI learning through expression of their imagined future identities. We designed a learning workshop - Dreaming with AI - where students learned about the inner workings of generative AI tools, used text-to-image generation algorithms to create their imaged future dreams, reflected on the potential benefits and harms of generative AI tools and voiced their opinions about policies for the use of these tools in classrooms. In this paper, we present the learning activities and experiences of 34 high school students who engaged in our workshops. Students reached creative learning objectives by using prompt engineering to create their future dreams, gained technical knowledge by learning the abilities, limitations, text-visual mappings and applications of generative AI, and identified most potential societal benefits and harms of generative AI.

翻译：生成式AI工具为青少年提供了新兴且易于获取的媒体创作形式，同时也引发了关于虚假媒体生成、数据保护、隐私以及AI生成艺术所有权的伦理问题。由于生成式AI已广泛应用于青少年使用的产品中，他们理解这些工具的工作原理及其被合理或滥用的可能性至关重要。在本研究中，我们通过引导学生表达想象中的未来身份来促进他们对生成式AI的学习。我们设计了一个名为"与AI共梦"的学习工作坊，学生在此过程中了解生成式AI工具的内部机制，使用文本到图像生成算法创建想象中的未来梦想，反思生成式AI工具的潜在益处与危害，并就课堂中使用这些工具的政策提出个人见解。本文展示了参与工作坊的34名高中生的学习活动与体验。学生通过提示工程实现创造性学习目标以构建未来梦想，通过掌握生成式AI的能力、局限性、文本-视觉映射及应用获得技术知识，并识别了生成式AI最主要的社会潜在益处与危害。
