Manifesto for Generative AI in Higher Education

Responsibility, Ethics, and Power

Statement 14 of 30

Accountability scales with influence.

Why this matters

The greater the reach of our technologies, the stronger our duty to justify their use. Institutions must show, not just state, how GenAI aligns with educational and institutional values. Responsibility must be visible through transparent governance, clear boundaries, and open dialogue.

A question for reflection

What evidence should institutions be expected to publish about how and why they use GenAI?
