Some in higher education see adjustments for artificial intelligence taking place on four levels. First, some colleges and universities are asking themselves what students need to know in order to be career ready. Second is an examination of what kinds of policies and practices need to be put in place to protect learning, such as guidelines for ethical use. Third, colleges and universities are asking themselves how they’re going to use AI internally. Will it be used for fundraising? By the admissions office? What restrictions are needed to maximize efficiency while protecting data and privacy and preventing adverse outcomes? Finally, a much deeper set of questions surrounds ways to help students and schools understand the big-picture implications of this new technology. AI tools are owned by companies that have their own interests. Schools will be creating curricula about AI — from the computer science department to the philosophy department — and not just using it as a tool in existing classes.
