From search results to article summaries, image generators and facial recognition, artificial intelligence (AI) seems to be everywhere. 

Bonnie Stewart, a professor in the Faculty of Education at the University of Windsor, challenges the idea that this AI omnipresence is inevitable or even something higher education should embrace.
