Rochester faculty discuss the impact of artificial intelligence on education and how harnessing AI is essential for future-proofing the workforce.
Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping higher education, and institutions face a clear choice: adapt or fall behind. The challenge ahead is to prepare students for a world transformed by AI. This goes beyond simply using AI tools in the classroom; it’s also about rethinking learning itself.
