The authors find two 'Discourses': "The first Discourse centres around the advent of unprecedented sociotechnical change and how higher education has an imperative to respond. The second Discourse focuses on how AI is altering the locus of authority and agency surrounding academic work." This result is obtained by selecting 29 articles (the majority of which are from the US and the UK) from "the most prominent higher education journals" (that rattling sound you hear is my eyes rolling). We find that "Few articles articulated definitions of AI. Only five texts discussed or provided definitions, and of these, four were from the 1980s." The most telling conclusion, I think, is this one: "how little in-depth discussion of AI there is within the leading higher education journals." The discussion of the discourses is interesting, if dated, but one wonders about the relevance of a study of authors who aren't talking about, and know little about, the subject of this discourse.
