How Will Artificial Intelligence Change Higher Ed? Let Us Count the Ways
The 2024 New Jersey Big Data Alliance Symposium, held last spring at Rutgers-New Brunswick, focused on the impacts of AI on society and higher education. Key takeaways include AI's amazing ability to automate tedious manual tasks (e.g., transcribing handwritten historical documents into text), streamlining the admissions process and significantly improving the feedback loop.
How is AI impacting college admissions?
AI can help admissions administrators by analyzing applicant profiles to create balanced cohorts. For instance, if a university has a large number of incoming athletes, AI can identify and suggest candidates from other backgrounds, such as artists, to ensure a diverse student body.
What role does AI play in research efficiency?
AI has the potential to significantly speed up research processes. For example, tasks that previously took months, such as analyzing election coverage from numerous television markets, could now be completed in a matter of seconds, allowing researchers to focus on more complex analyses.
How can AI enhance learning materials?
AI can transcribe handwritten documents and create searchable catalogs, making historical materials more accessible. This technology can help students who struggle with traditional formats by providing descriptions and context for photographs and illustrations, thus supporting diverse learning styles.
