AI is changing faster than most college curricula can. How can universities prepare students for an AI-shaped workplace when both the technology and the workplace itself are still changing?
C. Edward Watson, Vice President for Digital Innovation at AAC&U and coauthor of Teaching with AI, joins Sarah and Taiyo to discuss how higher education can respond without giving up the careful deliberation and context-sensitive judgment that a good curriculum requires.
They explore curricular agility, discipline-specific AI literacy, and where AI belongs across general education, academic majors, and capstone courses. They also ask what it really means to “use AI” well, how colleges can balance workforce preparation with cognitive sovereignty, and why institutional mission and classroom context should shape decisions about teaching with AI.
