Nursing programs are increasingly integrating AI and virtual reality to enhance training amid concerns about the role of technology in education. North Carolina Central University uses immersive tech to simulate real-world scenarios, addressing the state's nursing shortage and improving student preparedness. This approach has raised the school's pass rate for the nursing licensure exam to 96%.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is emphasizing the growing importance of AI literacy in the job market. Huang says that graduates who lack AI skills may struggle to find employment as companies increasingly seek AI-ready talent. "People who use AI will replace people who don't," Huang says. "AI is a foundational skill that students should begin learning regardless of their career path or academic background."

The California State University system has extended its partnership with OpenAI, investing $56 million over four years to integrate ChatGPT Edu across campuses.
