Learning of Tomorrow [July 24] “What Should University Education Preserve in the Age of Generative AI?” This week's Learning of Tomorrow Online Symposium is titled "What Should University Education Preserve in the Age of Generative AI?"
The rapid advancements in generative AI are beginning to fundamentally challenge the way we approach “learning” and “education.”
From knowledge acquisition and assignment creation to research support and even personalized learning, we are entering an era in which generative AI is replacing and expanding upon some of the roles traditionally fulfilled by schools and teachers.
Amid these changes, questions such as “What can only be achieved through education?” and “What should universities preserve?” are becoming increasingly pressing.
What will change as a result of AI, and what should remain unchanged? We’ll be discussing the future of universities. We hope you’ll join us.
