Series: Becoming Artificially Intelligent
The rise of AI presents us with radical opportunities, challenges, and choices. How we navigate these, both individually and as an academic community, shapes the future of what it means to be a student, an academic, and a university. This series investigates our academic relationships with AI and how these influence us and our choices. Why is AI so attractive? How do we make AI policy? And what are our personal academic relationships with AI actually like? Join us to examine and shape how we become artificially intelligent.

The AI-fication of Academia
Artificial intelligence technologies are transforming our university. This is not just a technical transition, but also confronts us with conflicting values and interests in ourselves and within our community. Be efficient or become smart? Clear rules or academic freedom? Sustainability or innovation? Join us to dissect how a university’s AI-policy takes shape together with AI-governance expert Prof. dr. ing. Bram Klievink (Leiden University). What tensions are at play? What’s important to you? And what role do you (want to) play?
