First of all, prudence and common demands that one should carefully ascertain the following before any new technology is applied to a given field, in this case, evaluation:
Is there a justifiable need for its use? Recall that most evaluations are carried out in less affluent, hence less technically advanced countries. Therefore, use of this so-called ‘cutting edge technology’ may make evaluators in those lands even more dependent of ‘experts’ from affluent nations.
What precisely ‘AI’ is supposed to contribute to enhance evaluation?
Resorting to ‘AI’ in evaluation implies that there is a shortage of human intelligence among evaluators; each evaluator ought to consider this aspect of the matter very seriously.
A careful consideration of the above questions does not seems to warrant application of ‘AI’ as a useful adjunctive tool in evaluation, provided that evaluation is concerned with ascertaining to what extent a set of actions has enhanced human existence in a given area.
