Artificial intelligence, or “AI” technology, continues to increase its presence in higher education, whether in administration or even in the classroom. However, while this dynamic technology can benefit schools and students in a number of ways, what are the privacy implications of expanding the use of AI in education? Join our panelists as they discuss the prevalence of AI in education and examine current privacy concerns related to expanding the innovative uses of AI. While sharing use cases of AI in education, our panelists will explore the potential pitfalls of using AI in the classroom and offer solutions on how to best reconcile the risks of AI so educational institutions can maximize the benefits.
