AI encompasses the development of algorithms and systems that enable machines to perform tasks requiring human-like intelligence, including problem-solving, learning, and adaptation. At Texas State University, AI is increasingly integrated into teaching, research, and administrative workflows, offering opportunities to improve efficiency and academic outcomes.
The following departments are involved in TXST's AI Strategy:
The evolution of AI dates back to the 1950s with early pioneers like Alan Turing proposing the possibility of machines performing human-like tasks. Over the decades, AI has progressed through phases of enthusiasm and skepticism, leading to the sophisticated technologies we have today.
