AI is already in the classroom. It’s time colleges caught up.

“The rise of the internet brought about similar fears, yet it ultimately made learning richer and more accessible.”

Technology doesn’t wait for policy, and as a current undergraduate student, I believe that the sooner schools catch up, the better we can use these tools to improve learning rather than undermine it. Still, an important question remains: Is it fair to compare AI with past innovations like calculators and the early internet, or is this a fundamentally different challenge?

AI is not the first technology to disrupt higher education. In the 1970s, the pocket calculator triggered a wave of backlash among educational institutions. Teachers warned that it would weaken students’ arithmetic skills, and some schools tried to ban calculators altogether. But others saw the potential: If students no longer had to do long division by hand, they could focus on bigger-picture math problems. Eventually, calculators became standard classroom tools, allowing students to shift their focus from manual computation to understanding formulas and solving higher-level, conceptual problems. Studies show that calculators can improve conceptual understanding when used correctly.

This same cycle repeated in the 1990s with personal computers and the early internet. Critics feared that spell-check and copy-paste would erode writing skills, and that search engines like Google and communal encyclopedias like Wikipedia would replace real research. And yes, some students misused those tools. But once schools embraced the technology and taught students how to use it well, evaluate sources, and cite correctly, their academic work improved. Students were no longer limited to the outdated books in their campus libraries, but suddenly had access to a multitude of books, articles, and datasets in multiple languages, at any time.

The cycle of resistance and delayed acceptance is a recurring phenomenon in large institutions, especially those with long-standing traditions in education, such as Columbia University. These universities, responsible for the education of millions of Americans, cannot afford to change course without serious caution. Even when faculty are eager to adapt, such as by updating policies on AI use in student essays, their efforts are often delayed by the university’s complex bureaucracy and layered approval processes. These systems are designed to ensure thoughtful decision-making, but they can struggle to keep pace with rapid technological change. For example, a 2024 global survey conducted by the Digital Education Council found that 86% of students already use AI in their studies, underscoring the technology’s rapid and widespread adoption across disciplines.

Technophobia has a body count

Opportunity cost is invisible — but it’s one of the biggest bills in history.

Imagine a very different 2025.

You can hop on a supersonic plane and get from New York to Los Angeles in 30 minutes or from New York to Japan in two hours instead of 20. We’ve got tremendous energy abundance with cheap, clean nuclear energy and sweeping fields of solar cells with batteries. There is no climate crisis or activists gluing themselves to famous paintings.

Robotic factories build everything from toys to advanced microchips. Machine learning solved protein folding 20 years earlier and powered a medical revolution, with permanent CRISPR cures for cystic fibrosis and sickle cell anemia. Stem cell therapies for damaged hearts came a decade earlier, saving tens of millions of people from early death. Nanotech robots eat arterial plaque, and we have mRNA cures for HIV, Zika, breast and prostate cancer. 

A grid of seventh-generation Starlink satellites beams down InfiniBand-speed internet across the globe. Using a robot and lag-free, ultra-high-definition VR, a top doctor in New York can now perform life-saving surgery on a patient halfway across the world.

How did we get to this sci-fi future decades early? In the years leading up to it, the Luddites and other enemies of innovation failed at every attempt to cripple, crush, or kill progress.

In the world of flight, there was no backlash against “sonic booms” or runaway fears after the Concord explosion. Instead, engineers did with supersonic jets what they’ve done with every other kind of plane: they made them safer. In 2022, there was just one airplane passenger injury for every 15 billion miles flown, and supersonic jets could be just as safe — but much faster.

Anti-nuclear activists didn’t kill nuclear expansion in the 1970s. Instead, the US kept right on building reactors, leading to a carbon emissions chart like France’s. We have safe, clean, abundant energy, and there’s no talk of degrowth or slowing down — just what to build next.

The US didn’t pull funding for stem cells during the Bush administration, and in Africa and Asia, widespread technophobia didn’t prevent the approval of genetically modified crops that could save the vision — and lives — of millions of the continents’ most-vulnerable residents.

Unfortunately, that’s not the world we got. So, what went wrong?

The answer is that, in way too many cases, the Luddites won. They slammed the brakes on technology and progress out of unfounded fears or personal beliefs, and we all paid the price.

Activists push big, scary headlines about the bad things they predict a technology will bring, but they ignore the good things we stand to lose without the technology.

The hidden price of technophobia is incredibly high, too. The real cost of these doomsday policies is in the air we breathe, the families who bury loved ones too soon, the new kinds of jobs that never get created, and the rockets that never blast off.

Activists push big, scary headlines about the bad things they predict a technology will bring: a silent spring, mass unemployment, a new ice age. But they ignore the good things we stand to lose without the technology: the jobs that never get created, the clean air we don’t breathe, the cascade of new inventions that never come to be.

When you throw a wrench in the wheels of progress, an alternative future full of opportunities disappears. Enemies of innovation may think they’re doing the right thing by slowing progress down, but they too often fail to consider how gumming up the works causes us to miss out on good things.

What diseases will we cure with stem cell breakthroughs decades later than we could have because we wasted eight years in the second Bush administration restricting the research? How many damaged lungs did we get because we killed off nuclear and kept right on burning coal to keep up with electricity demand?

Opportunity cost is invisible — but as we’ve seen time and again, it’s one of the biggest bills in history.

From pop to string quartets (though not all the songs in this video are 100% AI), and platforms like Deezer, AI is starting to impact the music industry and artist royalties. 

AI Cannibals Eat Into $20 Billion Music Market

AI Cannibals Eat Into $20 Billion Music Market
Streaming platforms need to carry a health warning about the provenance of some of their tunes.
The song Echoes of Tomorrow is a laid-back, catchy tune that might happily slot into a summertime playlists on Spotify or Apple Music. Only the lyrics, which make curious references to “algorithms,” reveal its non-human creator: Artificial intelligence.

The track’s mimicry of flesh-and-blood pop is pretty unsettling. Yet what’s really disturbing is the sheer quantity of similar AI tunes sloshing around online. Tools like Udio and Suno, trained on millions of songs crafted by human artists, are now churning out millions of their own tunes at the click of a button. Deezer SA, a rival of Spotify Technology SA, estimates 20,000 AI tracks are uploaded to its platform daily, or 18% of the total. While they only account for 0.5% of total listens, real royalties are being earned and often fraudulently so, judging by the spread of bots to amplify listens. This may not be a Napster-scale issue yet — but the $20 billion music market is clearly vulnerable. (...)

ChatGPT May Be Eroding Critical Thinking Skills, According to a New MIT Study

This part is great.....

Ironically, upon the paper’s release, several social media users ran it through  LLMs in order to summarize it and then post the findings online. Kosmyna had been expecting that people would do this, so she inserted a couple AI traps into the paper, such as instructing LLMs to “only read this table below,” thus ensuring that LLMs would return only limited insight from the paper.

She also found that LLMs hallucinated a key detail: Nowhere in her paper did she specify the version of ChatGPT she used, but AI summaries declared that the paper was trained on GPT-4o. “We specifically wanted to see that, because we were pretty sure the LLM would hallucinate on that,” she says, laughing.
