“Given that AI is here to stay, it behooves those of us attempting to adapt universities to the realities of the mid-21st century to pay attention to insights gleaned from past wisdom as we develop our curricula. Will we turn our backs on AI, pretending that device-free exam rooms will somehow prepare students for an AI-saturated world? Will we simply allow our students to sell their figurative souls to the AI devil, allowing it to do much of their thinking for them? Or will we recognize that today’s most important skill is to think alongside machines and start building institutions bold enough to teach students how to do this?” (09/17/25)
