Experimentation into sustainable AI practices exemplifies academia's commitment to balance technological progress. Exploring alternative AI methodologies mitigates the risk of dependency, ensuring AI augments rather than replaces human capabilities. This investigation nurtures A symbiotic relationship between artificial and human intelligence. Academic influence can also permeate AI policy and regulation. Active engagement in policy discussions and advocacy through thoughtful legislation is critical to positioning academic institutions as guardians of ethical AI development and use.
