Description

In a prior semester, approximately 100 business students were given the opportunity to utilize AI tools to complete an assessment. Two-thirds of the students who chose not to use AI cited either unfamiliarity with the technology or ethical concerns. Students who lack experience with AI may face challenges during job interviews, particularly when asked, “How would you utilize AI to improve efficiencies and processes in the position you are applying for?” To address this gap, business courses have begun to incorporate assignments that emphasize the role of AI in business careers and AI’s practical applications in the workplace.
