South Dakota State University has opened a “Center for AI Innovation and Emergent Technologies” to promote on-campus AI literacy.
Dennis Hedge is Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs. He says students will live in a future strongly influenced by AI. “AI obviously is impacting our world,” said Hedge. “We want them to have an awareness so that they truly understand, I mean, where does AI really help and augment, but also there are a few potential pitfalls if utilized not properly.”
Victor Taylor is Vice Provost for Graduate Education and Extended Studies. He said the center is for students in all majors and SDSU wants graduates equipped to work ethically and effectively in a world increasingly shaped by AI and other emerging technologies.
