Abstract

AI is poised to reshape many sectors of our society and economy including higher education. However, the character of this future is often imagined from within particular academic silos or through what technologies can do rather than proven need. In this post, Andrew Cox describes how alongside his conventional research, he has used fictional narratives to explore future AI scenarios within the academy and to raise questions that cut across traditional conceptions of what AI can do for higher education.
