Abstract
Generative artificial intelligence (GAI) is having profound impacts on information systems education. As experts in the socio-technical aspects of technology, information systems (IS) educators are at the forefront of understanding how to promote responsible, ethical, and productive educational uses of GAI. IS educators must adjust how we teach and interact with students in order to meet the challenges and opportunities GAI brings. At the 2024 Southern Association for Information Systems Conference, four experienced IS educators with over forty years of collective experience led an engaging discussion that considered GAI’s impacts on IS education from a variety of perspectives. The wide-ranging discussion touched on a variety of topics, including the benefits and risks of GAI, building GAI awareness and knowledge, and ethical issues, including academic integrity threats. This report synthesizes these discussions and provides practical recommendations for IS educators navigating the integration of GAI into their teaching practices.
