From University World News: “AI’s influence is paradoxical. In science and engineering, it enhances traditional methods of measurement and prediction. Yet in the humanities and social sciences, AI’s ability to generate text and automate interpretation disrupts fundamental ideas about meaning, creativity and human knowledge. These divergent impacts across disciplines have profound implications for universities. As AI strengthens some areas while unsettling others, institutions must adapt by developing new literacy programmes, upgrading infrastructure and fostering cross-disciplinary collaboration. The challenge lies in ensuring that AI’s benefits are distributed across all fields, preventing the emergence of new divides.”
