Universities are struggling to set AI classroom rules as AI adoption in workplaces accelerates faster than curricula can adapt. A McKinsey study found 88% of companies are using AI, while a PwC study in June reported a 62% average wage premium for workers with AI skills. As a result, some schools keep AI off-limits by default or rely on faculty-by-faculty policies, while others build in allowed use with disclosure and evidence to address cheating and skill-building concerns.
Why it matters
Some professors have banned it in the classroom while others have incorporated it into the curriculum.
