Cal State unveils artificial intelligence tools for students
California State University (CSU) is integrating generative artificial intelligence technologies like ChatGPT across its 23 campuses to enhance student learning and prepare them for an AI-driven workforce, while also forming an AI Workforce Acceleration Board with industry leaders to address challenges like climate change and housing affordability. Despite optimistic predictions about AI's potential to innovate education, concerns remain about its impact on the value of college degrees and academic integrity, prompting CSU to negotiate a system-wide deal with OpenAI and allocate funds from one-time savings to support these AI initiatives.
