Artificial Intelligence for Academia
Adolfo Ibáñez University is leading the integration of artificial intelligence into academia through faculty development, intellectual production, and academic management, with a focus on quality, ethics, and interdisciplinary collaboration.
To this end, it has developed the ConectIA program: Skills for the Academia of the Future, which —together with the National Center for Artificial Intelligence (CENIA)— reflects UAI’s commitment to a critical and strategic academic transformation. Additionally, it has made available to its community institutional policies, ethical use guidelines, and principles that guide the integration of AI at UAI.

Ethics and responsible use
These are the guidelines for the ethical integration of AI at UAI:
- Promote the use of artificial intelligence throughout the entire university journey, always ensuring that human responsibility is the guiding principle.
- Ensure transparency, protect data privacy, and uphold academic integrity as fundamental pillars.
- Gradually adopt AI to improve quality, equity, and innovation, with institutional support and clear guidelines for each course.
- Our goal is not to replace academic judgment, but to strengthen it to enhance teaching, learning, and research.
