Artificial Intelligence will radically transform the concept of university, according to the Dominican producer and conductor Juan Carlos Guilbe. This educational model, in force for over a thousand years, will face deep changes without completely disappearing.
Declarations of Juan Carlos Guilbe in The Recetario
In the program The Recetario, Juan Carlos Guilbe, known for his space Finanzas con humor, detailed how Artificial Intelligence will radically transform the concept of university. “It’s not that the university is going to disappear, but it will be radically modified”, the communicator said during the interview conducted by Nena Rodríguez in Santo Domingo.
Impact on education and key professions
Guilbe extended the analysis beyond academia. AI will affect fields such as medicine, where it will influence diagnoses and surgeries, and civil engineering, revolutionizing structural calculations. “Similarly, as it will do with medicine, similarly as it will do with surgery in the medical area, as it will do the structural engineer”, he specified.
Global context of educational transformation
International experts support this vision. A 2023 UNESCO report indicates that 70% of universities plan to integrate AI into their curricula by 2025, adapting to tools like ChatGPT that already solve complex tasks. In the Dominican Republic, the Ministry of Education reported in 2024 that 40% of university students use AI daily, accelerating the need to reform outdated programs.
Practical examples in medicine and engineering
- In medicine, systems like IBM Watson diagnose cancer with 90% accuracy, surpassing humans in some cases.
- In engineering, software with AI optimizes structural designs, reducing errors by 30% according to Autodesk studies.
Historically, the university emerged in Bologna in 1088 as a collective center of knowledge. Today, Artificial Intelligence will radically transform the concept of university, moving from passive classrooms to hybrid environments with personalized learning.
Juan Carlos Guilbe emphasizes that these changes do not eliminate professions, but redefine them. Universities like MIT are already experimenting with AI for virtual simulations, preparing students for an automated world.
In the Dominican Republic, this discussion takes on relevance in the face of a 25% growth in university enrollments post-pandemia. Artificial Intelligence will radically transform the concept of university, demanding rapid adaptation to maintain global competitiveness.
