The growing optimism around the use of artificial intelligence tools in higher education underscores the need for guardrails and guidance on best practices, according to University of North Dakota faculty members who spoke on a panel this week. The panelists, who were joined by OpenAI President and ChatGPT co-creator Greg Brockman, said the technology could revolutionize their fields of study and warned that discussions around the ethical uses of AI should not be overshadowed by its novelty. “You cannot talk about the benefits without talking about the risks,” Brockman said.
