AI at Duke
Duke encourages you to practice responsible prompting not only to minimize AI’s carbon footprint but also to promote ethical, accurate, and inclusive use.
Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming our future by driving innovation across research and education. It plays a pivotal role in advancing scientific discovery, from accelerating medical breakthroughs to solving complex global challenges. Duke’s AI Framework establishes four pillars built upon a strong, foundational AI infrastructure and systems.
“The recent advances we have made in AI represent perhaps the largest breakthrough humanity has had in decades. As such, AI is clearly one of the biggest opportunities and biggest challenges we will face in higher education for the foreseeable future.”
– Provost Alec Gallimore
