The introductory programming sequence has been the focus of much research in
computing education. The recent advent of several viable and freely-available
AI-driven code generation tools present several immediate opportunities and
challenges in this domain. In this position paper we argue that the community
needs to act quickly in deciding what possible opportunities can and should be
leveraged and how, while also working on how to overcome or otherwise mitigate
the possible challenges. Assuming that the effectiveness and proliferation of
these tools will continue to progress rapidly, without quick, deliberate, and
concerted efforts, educators will lose advantage in helping shape what
opportunities come to be, and what challenges will endure. With this paper we
aim to seed this discussion within the computing education community.

该文介绍了在计算机教育领域中，最近出现的几种可行且可自由使用的 AI 驱动代码生成工具带来的机会和挑战，并呼吁社区快速采取行动以决定如何利用和克服这些挑战。
