There is a growing body of literature exploring the impact of AI on higher education. In this seminar, we will discuss how AI may influence human reasoning and thinking. Our discussions will be based on the preprint by Shaw and Nate (2026),
The seminar is intended as an opportunity to critically examine the opportunities and challenges AI presents for teaching, learning, and academic thinking.
