Abstract
There has been growing interest in the educational potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications in higher education (HE) for the past decade. Despite the recent peak of excitement towards advanced features and techniques of AI-driven large language models (LLMs) such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT, their actual impact on HE institutions and participants has been largely unknown. Thus, many discussions in the field have involved overstated hype and untested hypotheses, whether optimistic or pessimistic, about the impact of AI in education (AIEd).
