People are are always saying that AI will revolutionise the working of the business and finance sector. But one critical question often goes unasked: How are business schools and finance training programmes changing to meet this new world? While it may seem like there is a tech-driven revolution in schools, the problem is not with the technology. It is with how we prepare and teach.

First, the true gap in AI is between deans and their instructors. Leaders of institutions aim to do completely different things from what their teachers are already doing every day. A recent AACSB survey illustrates how significant this disparity really is. According to 85% of deans, their institution encourages teachers to employ AI in class. However, only 63% of teachers agree. The disparity is much wider when it comes to using AI in the classroom: 80% of deans feel that faculty should use it, but just 55% of faculty agree. This demonstrates that the desire to do something is much higher than the ability to do it. Faculty can’t assist students to go beyond the most fundamental uses of AI since there isn’t enough support from the bottom up to match this top-down vision.
