As AI continues to disrupt industries and reshape how we live and work, the future of higher education stands at a critical crossroads. Tech-optimists envision a future of adaptive, affordable, and innovative learning, while tech-pessimists warn of the loss of human connection or even the end of education as we know it. Rather than accepting either future as inevitable, we have the power to shape it through balanced and ethical leadership. By thoughtfully integrating technology and prioritizing human-centered approaches, we can steer higher education toward a hopeful future.
