Artificial Intelligence, Startups And English Language: What Potential Unintended Effects On Higher Education, Scientific Research And Labor Market



Authors : Attia Moufida .

Abstract

Three recent decisions were made to assign new missions to Algerian universities: promoting startups, supporting the use of artificial intelligence, and adopting English as a language for teaching. However, these three missions will likely have many negative effects that could prevent the intended goals from being reached. This research paper aims to highlight these potential negative effects by conducting an inductive thematic analysis based on an examination of related decrees, instructions and laws. The results revealed that supporting artificial intelligence may decrease efforts by students and professors in research, which could affect their skills. Encouraging students to create their own startups may impact the level of wage labor in Algeria, especially given the large number of measures simultaneously undertaken by other ministries to promote entrepreneurship. Additionally, the use of English could reduce the use of the national languages, facilitate migration, and widen the gap between skills and labor market requirements. These potential negative effects must be addressed to prevent them from occurring. Therefore, strengthening cooperative efforts between ministries may eliminate the predicted negative effects that entrepreneurship supportive measures might cause to the labor market. On the other hand, revealing the potential risk related to the use of artificial intelligence highlights the necessity of providing guides and laws. Finally, if an assessment concludes that the use of English will affect negatively national languages, then a set of measures must be undertaken to preserve them.
