🎙 Live from FETC | Unscripted Intelligence: Game Changers Series

Guest: Matt Winters

Host: Arvin Ross + Dr. Michelle Ament

Presented by: The Human Intelligence Movement

🔍Episode Summary:

Twenty-five years ago, a student couldn't make a video without a computer lab. Now they can produce one on a Chromebook before lunch.

Matt Winters thinks we're about to miss the point entirely.

Matt Winters is the AI Education Specialist at the Utah State Board of Education, and as far as he knows, the first full-time state-level AI education hire in the country. At FETC 2026, he laid out what Utah is building: portraits of AI-ready learners, AI-infused teachers, and an ecosystem that extends into business and higher education. All of it rooted in community input. All of it grounded in knowledge, skills, and dispositions.

His unavoidable truth reframes how we think about assessment. The videos, the podcasts, the polished publications students can produce today? Those aren't the finish line. They're the starting point. And if schools keep treating them as final products, we'll skip straight to the end without building the skills that matter.

This one is for anyone making AI decisions for a district and wondering where the guardrails should actually go.
