AI was founded at Dartmouth. Now we're shaping what comes next.

Across campus, Dartmouth is showing what it means to use AI responsibly, with the rigor, ethics, and human judgment this moment demands.

What's Happening Right Now

AI at Dartmouth

When tools can generate fluent output on demand, the purpose of a university is not to compete with machines, but to strengthen the capacities they cannot replicate: reasoning under uncertainty, dialogue across difference, creative problem-solving that breaks new ground, and judgment that can be explained and defended.

At Dartmouth, we view AI not as a substitute for education, but as a test of it. Our students develop and defend their own interpretations, challenge assumptions, and push ideas into uncharted territory—learning when to use these tools and when to set them aside. What we value is not the volume of what can be produced, but the rigor of the reasoning behind it.
