The increasing capabilities and rapid proliferation of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are reshaping higher education. This spotlight explores how generative AI is being adopted and used in higher education, highlighting the opportunities and challenges associated with its growing use. It identifies five areas of emerging system-level policy responses.

Governments face complex, cross-cutting and fast-moving challenges that require effective co-ordination across policy areas, clear prioritisation, and enhanced delivery capacity at the centre of government (CoG). This synthesis report examines how CoGs steer and guide the delivery of strategic priorities across government. It draws on applied examples from six European Union countries.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has advanced rapidly over the past decade. It has already transformed some fields, but how the transformation will unfold and what can be done to shape it remains highly uncertain. To keep pace with these developments, this report sets out five scenarios as tools for exploring uncertainty, stress-testing and developing policy.
