From its emerging stages as a theoretical concept to its current status as a transformative force, artificial intelligence (AI) has seen a remarkable evolution. The trajectory of AI's advancement—from simple algorithms to sophisticated machine learning models capable of outperforming human expertise in specific tasks—heralds a future in which AI's role is central to every aspect of our lives. The implications for future generations are profound: a shift in job structures, the emergence of new industries, and the overhaul of existing societal norms.
The use of generative AI tools on campus is an excellent opportunity for technology and other leaders to provide guidance to students, faculty, and staff about how to navigate these new technological waters. In April 2023, we were involved in a panel with students at College Unbound. The conversation —"Generative AI and Higher Education: Disruption, Opportunities, and Challenges"— offered many different highlights, and the students brought rich thoughts, provocative considerations, and smart ideas, reinforcing the fact that discussions around what to do about generative AI (or about anything else, for that matter) are enhanced when students are involved. Toward the end of the panel conversation, Stan asked the students what they thought could be done to help faculty, students, and staff navigate the rise of AI. Essentially, he was curious to hear about the roles that technology and other leaders could fulfill. After thinking about their answers and engaging in further reflection, we came up with ten suggestions for how to step up and in to the generative AI discussion in higher education.

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is in a renaissance amid a profusion of new discoveries and a breathless frenzy to keep up with emergent developments. Yet understanding the current state of technology requires understanding its origins. With the state of AI science changing quickly, we should first take a breath and establish proper footings. To help, this article provides a reading list relevant to the form of generative AI that led to natural language processing (NLP) models such as ChatGPT.

EDUCAUSE is helping institutional leaders, technology professionals, and other staff address their pressing challenges by sharing existing data and gathering new data from the higher education community. This report is based on an EDUCAUSE QuickPoll. QuickPolls enable us to rapidly gather, analyze, and share input from our community about specific emerging topics.
