Human capabilities focused in student, teacher artificial intelligence guide
The guide adds learning modules and self-assessment tools as 87,000 users in 170 countries access its website.
Elon University, The American Association of Colleges and Universities, and The Princeton Review released their third annual Student Guide to Artificial Intelligence, offering learning modules and self-assessment tools to help students navigate the rapidly evolving technology.
With more than 87,000 users in 170 countries, the guide addresses widespread uncertainty as 82% of people believe artificial intelligence will play a significantly larger role in shaping societal functions in the next 10 years.
The guide draws on 10 voices including Aristotle and Descartes to emphasize critical inquiry and ethical reasoning, capacities President Lynn Pasquerella of The American Association of Colleges and Universities says enable students to engage artificial intelligence thoughtfully.
Rob Franek, editor in chief at The Princeton Review, notes students are "both excited by AI and uncertain about how to use it well," while Janna Anderson warns accelerated artificial intelligence use risks weakening human judgment.
To counter global competition from China, Republican President Donald Trump has prioritized "ideologically neutral" artificial intelligence to spur private-sector innovation, marking a shift from the previous Biden era.
