AI Appears to Be Everywhere and Nowhere: Building Blocks for Supporting AI Adoption in Higher Education
As Artificial Intelligence (AI) continues to transform the landscape of higher education, universities are increasingly called upon to adopt AI approaches. But how can institutions ensure AI is implemented safely and responsibly? This panel brings together diverse expertise to discuss the urgent need for a comprehensive AI strategy. Attendees will learn about the essential building blocks for creating a secure and ethical AI ecosystem, including privacy and security standards, tool adoption, technical architecture, investment and strategies to combat bias. With AI becoming integral to both academic and operational functions, the discussion will cover practical ways to foster AI literacy, align AI initiatives with institutional goals and effectively scale AI tools.
