Generative AI risks marginalizing disability knowledge in higher education

A new research paper explores how generative AI systems in higher education can inadvertently marginalize knowledge from underrepresented groups, particularly individuals with disabilities. The study highlights that current AI training data, often biased towards Western and Anglophone perspectives, reinforces existing epistemic coloniality. It examines the potential for human-AI collaboration to maintain epistemic diversity, while cautioning against relying solely on algorithmic solutions for inclusivity. AI

IMPACT Generative AI's training data biases may exclude or misrepresent knowledge from marginalized groups, necessitating careful consideration for equitable AI development in academia.

    Generative artificial intelligence and the marginalization of minoritized knowledges in higher education: the case of disability

    arXiv:2605.26769v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generative artificial intelligence redefines higher education by restructuring the processes through which scientific knowledge is produced and validated. These systems are not neutral; they actively contribute to the marginalizat…
