Hybrid Universities at Risk: Human Expertise in the Age of AI Supercomputing and Quantum “Cognition”

The advent of the “hybrid university” stands out as one of the most significant advancements in knowledge generation mechanisms since it combines the cognitive capacities of humans, institutions, and machines in one coherent entity [1]. The model is fundamentally sound as it takes advantage of how artificial intelligence, supercomputing, and quantum computing can increase cognitive potential far beyond the natural abilities of any single human being [2,3].
