However, as we embrace its benefits, we must pause and ask: Are we empowering students or outsourcing the skills we aim to cultivate? As universities adopt AI, we must continue to revisit the question: Are we empowering students or outsourcing the skills we aim to cultivate? In embracing AI, we must not sacrifice skills that define us, including our language, critical thought, and capacity to question. The future of education and society depends on our ability to preserve human skills as we adapt to technological change. Universities must equip students with the skills to responsibly apply AI, while government-supported upskilling and reskilling initiatives ensure today’s workforce remains competitive.
