Economics professor Bruce Sacerdote recently led the first Dartmouth AI Survey, alongside Peter Chin, professor of engineering. Survey participants included 1,500 Dartmouth students and 1,000 college students across the United States. Students report using AI themselves to aid learning, while believing their peers use AI more often. Students also tend to believe that AI will be useful for their future careers, without necessarily eliminating future job possibilities. “Universities can help students think critically and contribute meaningfully even in the age of AI,” Sacerdote says.
