This episode uncovers why so many researchers believe AI will transform education and research, yet so few actually use it. I’m joined by Dr. Tosin Ekundayo, co-author of Evaluating the Influence of Artificial Intelligence on Scholarly Research: A Study Focused on Academics. He made a bold statement, urging the ethical and responsible use of AI in higher education for both students and faculty. In his words: “Why should we plan the future of education for students without involving them, knowing full well that we might not even be part of that future?”Together, we break down:Why academics trust AI’s potential but hesitate to adopt it.The real barriers: fear of unknown, data privacy, and bias.How AI can complement, not replace human researchers.Data protection, data management and open-source researchWhy we must involve students in the conversation nowIf you’re an educator, EdTech leader, researcher, or policymaker, this conversation is packed with insights you can use right now to shape your approach to AI in academic research and teaching.Share your thoughts and leave a review at www.d2dpodcast.com, subscribe to Dare to Disrupt on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or YouTube for more conversations on AI in Education, EdTech innovation, and the future of education, and don’t forget to follow us on social @d2disrupt for bonus clips and resources.Stay curious, stay disruptive!
