Dr. River Sage investigates the fundamental shifts occurring in how humans create, validate, and transmit knowledge in the age of AI. With backgrounds spanning philosophy of science, education theory, and cognitive science, River examines both the practical transformations happening in universities and research institutions and the deeper epistemological questions these changes raise. Their work is particularly focused on understanding what happens to concepts like expertise, authority, and intellectual rigor when AI systems can access vast knowledge bases and generate sophisticated analyses. River approaches these questions with both excitement about new possibilities for human learning and careful attention to preserving what is valuable in existing knowledge traditions.
