Research output: Contributions to collected editions/works › Chapter › peer-review
Authors
This part analyzes the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in German Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), highlighting its transformative potential and associated challenges. AI technologies are increasingly employed to enhance teaching, streamline administration, and accelerate research. Despite their benefits, concerns regarding transparency, equity, data privacy, and accountability are raised. Anticipated European regulations, such as the proposed Artificial Intelligence Act, are expected to further shape AI application in academia. Using empirical case studies from German universities, this manuscript illustrates successful AI integration while addressing the challenges of balancing innovation with ethical and legal considerations. The manuscript concludes with strategic recommendations for policymakers, educators, and technology developers to promote responsible AI adoption, emphasizing the importance of ethical frameworks, human oversight, and interdisciplinary collaboration. This study provides valuable insights into the current and future landscape of AI in HEIs.
