Mark Carrigan , University of Manchester , Oct 02, 2026 This short book ( 63 page PDF ) looks at the issues around the use of AI in educational institutions and considers ways to cope with it. There's a lengthy discussion of what it is and what the dangers are. I note especially that the core danger outlined here is lock-in - institutions get to the point where AI is an essential technology, whereupon providers start squeezing them on price and capacity. How could institutions gt to this point? The issue, argues author Mark Carrigan, is that universities especially lack the institutional…

arXiv, and the scientific community at large, are facing a watershed moment. Scholarly publishing is currently changing at a rapid pace, and we are seeing a…

While artificial intelligence has long factored into the trends and issues within Educause

UCLA researchers built an AI system that uses light to analyze more than a dozen videos simultaneously, detecting deepfakes with nearly 98% accuracy. Its speed, low energy demands, and resistance to attacks could make it a powerful tool for screening the growing flood of AI-generated video.

Discover how higher education institutions can build AI platforms grounded in institutional IQ—driving trusted AI transformation at scale.

Artificial intelligence (AI) may be everywhere, but widespread adoption does not automatically create value. Resistance to AI is not a barrier to innovation in higher education. It is a necessary force for asking hard questions, protecting core values, and ensuring that technology adoption remains purposeful and mission-driven.

The heads of OpenAI, Anthropic, and Hugging Face joined AI researcher Yoshua Bengio at the United Nations headquarters in New York to warn the UN Security Council about the security risks of increasingly capable AI.

Some people are abandoning office jobs for teaching, health care and the trades. But the new paths can come with trade-offs

People might feel more comfortable making mistakes if they’re interacting with AI chatbots. But they will miss the nuances that come from conversing with real people.

Alex Kennedy , Next Horizon , Sept 30, 2026 According to this article, "the race is shifting from 'Who has the smartest chatbot?' to 'Who can build an AI that helps a person learn without doing the learning for them?'" It's a good question, because it's not exactly clear what the answer would look like (and indeed, it might be different for each student). "The problem is timing. If a beginner uses AI to bypass the exact mental operation they are trying to learn, they may become efficient before they become competent." This would have been a stronger article had it stuck to this question, but…

Mathematicians now have a formidable tool for breaking open challenging problems, but working out how best to use it isn't going to be easy

In its 2027-28 state budget proposal, the public system emphasized the importance of a unified adoption of artificial intelligence practices and policies.

Microsoft has disrupted EvilTokens, a cybercrime service that used AI to help attackers break into e-mail accounts, study their victims, and build convincing financial scams.

Some students and faculty are calling for the provost’s firing after he allegedly used generative AI to write professional articles. He’s admitted to using ChatGPT, but says it didn’t replace his own intellectual judgment or authorship.

Pressing Prompts is an open collection of teaching activities and resources designed to help higher education instructors engage students in discussions about the social and ethical implications of artificial intelligence. The project originated at Duke University through a  … Read more

A new vendor coalition built on an Okta-developed blueprint is proposing a shared architecture for discovering, governing, monitoring and containing enterprise AI agents.

Since artificial intelligence (AI) software ChatGPT was released in 2022, teachers have been looking

Hazel Farrell , Ken McCarthy , PressBooks , Sept 25, 2026 This is the book-length version of the much briefer manifesto ( 64 page PDF ) released last year. It's available in Pressbooks format or 197 page PDF . It is composed of 30 essays from various authors organized around the three major themes: rethinking teaching and learning; responsibility, ethics and power; and imagination, humanity and the future. I have mixed feelings about both the messaging and the purplish prose, but I do like the structure. And we don't have to fret silently if we disagree; there's an interactive website where…

On Aug. 26, a Semafor investigation using Pangram to determine whether recent guest columns in major newspapers were written using artificial intelligence identified a column by Schnell as “100% AI-written.” Schnell’s column in The Washington Post — titled “Universities are fighting AI cheating. But there’s a deeper problem.” — argued that “a degree should distinguish what students can do independently from what they can accomplish with AI.” submitted by /u/rellotscire [link] [comments]

Artificial intelligence is saving scientists substantial amounts of time, but researchers are giving some of those gains back by checking the technology

California Governor Gavin Newsom is proposing a new model of artificial intelligence regulation that would give independent organizations a formal role in evaluating the safety claims made by leading AI companies.

The venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz is launching an unaccredited academy that promises to show young people how to excel in the AI era for the price of Ivy League tuition. But one critic says it’s yet another “techno-fascist” power grab.

I’ve had recent conversations with colleagues about AI-native universities. These institutions are designed around AI from inception, with the technology embedded in instruction, administration, and the underlying technology stack. A new AI-native university, the London School of Innovation, received accreditation in the UK. It offers a significantly lower tuition level than its peers. This may be the first of many. I’d like feedback from higher education stakeholders, including leadership and faculty, on how they’re thinking about this model. People are rightfully concerned about AI and…

Microsoft has been in the business of education for five decades. Since the earliest days of this company, we have worked alongside educators, students, families and educational leaders through each new wave of technology — and we have learned what helps learning and what gets in the way. That commitment continues today, in a technological...
