CSU has since renewed its contract with\u00a0ChatGPT\u00a0for $13 million annually for the next three years.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 A survey found that over half of CSU faculty feel that AI has negatively affected their teaching. Only a third of students feel their professors teach them how to effectively use AI. <\/p>\n<p>\u2022 There is tension between CSU faculty and administration regarding AI use, as highlighted by several complaints filed by the CFA with the state labor board.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 CFA represents not only professors but also coaches and mental health counselors at CSU, adding complexity to its opposition of AI use as it relates to both teaching and counseling roles.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The legislation backing the CFA&#8217;s opposition aims to establish &#8220;boundaries and guardrails&#8221; around the use of AI in education, as currently there are few restrictions in place.<\/p>\n<p>The summary highlights the key points regarding the faculty union&#8217;s concerns about potential AI usage that could replace faculty work, and the subsequent proposed legislation to prevent such practices, along with some of the underlying tensions between CSU faculty and administration.<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cal State faculty push to protect their jobs from artificial intelligence https:\/\/calmatters.org\/education\/higher-education\/2026\/06\/artificial-intelligence-cal-state-disputes\/ Publish Date: 2026-06-19&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":233793,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calmatters.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/021926_Dominguez_Hills_ZC_CM_26.jpg?fit=2000%2C1333&ssl=1","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[20],"class_list":["post-233792","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-artificial-intelligence"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/233792"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=233792"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/233792\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":233794,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/233792\/revisions\/233794"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/233793"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=233792"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=233792"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=233792"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
