Franciscan University economics professor examines why genuine expertise, critical thinking, and academic rigor are essential in an AI-driven world.
In The Daily Economy, Dr. Stephen C. Miller argues that genuine expertise—not simply access to information—must guide how universities prepare students for an AI-driven world.
As universities race to incorporate artificial intelligence into their curricula, are they confusing access to information with genuine knowledge?
In a new article published by The Daily Economy, Franciscan University of Steubenville economics professor Dr. Stephen C. Miller challenges the growing push for one-size-fits-all AI courses.
Drawing on economist Friedrich Hayek’s “knowledge problem,” Miller argues that effectively teaching AI requires specialized expertise, practical experience, and a deeper understanding of how the technology is used within individual professions.
“AI has made information much easier to obtain and computation vastly more powerful,” Miller writes. “It has not solved the knowledge problem.”
