Ninety percent of faculty surveyed by the AAC&U last fall said generative AI will diminish students' critical thinking.

Inside Higher Ed op-ed cover: We Have Never Taught Critical Thinking.

If a tool can erode critical thinking this quickly, were we ever really teaching it?

Treat critical thinking as a discipline, not a by-product.

CloudTweaks interviewed me through their AI interview program, which was "interesting" in itself. We covered AI guardrails in education and why they have to be built in, not bolted on. cloudtweaks.com/2026/05/prit...

Featured in CloudTweaks. AI guardrails in education must be built in, not bolted on. Priten Soundar-Shah, CEO of Pedagogy Ventures.

Quote slide. Safety standards can't be negotiable. Priten Soundar-Shah, CEO of Pedagogy Ventures.

Quote slide. The default-off guardrail holds because it's built into how we operate, not because we rely on willpower to maintain it under pressure.

Context slide. Many ed tech tools were not built AI-first. Anything that introduces a new layer of risk should default to off until the school actively opts in.

"Sometimes, a measure of subversion is exactly what's needed in a system that is not ethical."

Quote slide. Eyebrow From the interview. Quote: What the technology can do versus what it should do. That is the fundamental distinction I'm trying to draw. Attributed to Priten Soundar-Shah on the limits of techno-optimism in schools.

Context slide titled Part 1 of a wide-ranging conversation with Lance Eaton, listing four topics: why higher ed is harder than K-12, why the book is written for classroom educators, why the current focus is slowing down, and what an AI tutor cannot fix.
