What's the likelihood that universities eventually become open model providers?

Zero, but update priors when you see campus football stadiums replaced with datacenters and gas turbines

When my dad got his Computer science degree at Queens University (Ontario) in the late 1970s, there was an entire faculty-sized building on campus with no windows and few doors. This wasn’t just the CompSci department, the building WAS the computer.

Universities are struggling to prevent their students using AI, because it makes both learning and evaluation extremely difficult.

This. It's extremely frustrating, AI can be a 24/7 tutor, but too many students use it to do their work instead.

We have to really rethink how and what we teach, and how we evaluate. Scoring (non-handwritten) homework is pointless, even contra-productive (because it incentivizes cheating, even for the students who don't want to, just to not be outscored by the cheaters). Hand-written homework means the students at least have to have read the work once...

And soon, with AI glasses, even in-classroom tests will be difficult.

Treadmills and electric cars are the same components in different arrangements. One of them trains and develops your legs.

They can just get plotters to write their homework for them.

Universities provide the AI to students. We have CoPilot in our 365 and the Ed majors get free AI crap all the time. Hard to make drugs illegal when you're the dealer

[root_axis]

Way too expensive.

Oh. Thats an interesting concept. Expand
