A Panel Report on the Implications of Artificial Intelligence for Academic Knowledge Work

A panel of academics discussed how AI is changing their work in teaching, research, and service roles, finding both opportunities to boost productivity and concerns about ethical and professional risks. The impact of AI in academia depends on factors at multiple levels, including individual understanding of AI, how institutions govern its use, and discipline-specific practices. The researchers recommend that Information System scholars study human-AI collaboration, build trustworthy AI tools, and examine how AI affects academics' careers.
