Harvard research fellow says higher education must rethink what students learn in AI era

Higher education is at a crossroads as institutions across the country grapple with how to approach artificial intelligence in the classroom.

However, Harvard University Senior Research Fellow Christopher Dede says they are focusing on the wrong problem, and are not adequately preparing students to face a world in which AI is ubiquitous.
