Listen to the first episode of The Chronicle's new podcast, Open Questions.
The Chronicle Review is where academe comes to argue with itself. On Open Questions, The Review‘s podcast, Evan Goldstein and Len Gutkin bring the argument to you by talking with leading scholars and thinkers about the debates that matter now.
In This Episode:
A Harvard dean recently suggested that "there should be acceptance, even encouragement" of AI writing in the college classroom. That sort of thing creeps Jill Lepore out. We talked to the Pulitzer Prize-winning historian about what AI is doing to higher education, what went wrong at Harvard, and why our new tech overlords want dominion not just over our pockets and our politics but also our souls.
