“Generative AI may increase student overreliance on this technology, diminish critical thinking, shorten attention spans, and complicate academic integrity.”
This is the main conclusion of a report from AAC&U and Elon University’s Imagining the Digital Future Center,
which presents findings from a national survey of 1,057 faculty across disciplines and institutional types.
The research notes that many faculty see value in artificial intelligence tools, particularly for enhancing learning, and are incorporating AI literacy, ethics, and responsible-use practices into their courses.
The report offers insights for campus leaders and educators seeking to understand the current moment, craft policies, and prepare students for an AI-infused world.
