Addressing AI in Higher Education
College professors are recognizing the need to establish their own policies regarding the use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools in academic settings. While some institutions lack a unified approach, professors are navigating this technology with varying degrees of acceptance, from outright bans to moderated usage.
