AI in Higher Education

To discover the impacts the emergence of AI is having on higher education like college and university, I conducted an intervention with my friend Aaron who is studying and working in the software engineering industry where AI is having one of the biggest impacts. I asked my interviewee questions like how he feels about it, how he's used it, how it's impacting him and those around him in school, and how it's affecting his industry. I had heard a lot about AI taking people's jobs and how insures like computer engineering and computer science were being affected by it, and me being curious to learn more I chose Aaron as my candidate. It was interesting to compare what I had heard about the effects of AI on software engineering versus someone in the industry's experiences with it, especially when its popularity has been rising in other industries as well. The take away was that AI can be harmful if used incorrectly.
