About

I’m Nick McIntosh, Learning Futurist at RMIT Vietnam. I write about AI in Higher Education – from someone actually leading the work.

For two years, I’ve published weekly insights while leading AI initiatives, advising University Council and Academic Board for an institution serving 100,000+ students globally, running an 850+ member international educator community spanning three continents, and managing $310k in innovation projects. The external work (moderating the Nobel Prize Dialogue on “AI’s Role in Future Learning and Teaching” with 2.5m views, regional keynotes, LSE blog contributions) is nice, but the real insights come from the daily work of institutional transformation.

This newsletter tackles the questions educators and university leaders actually face: How do we govern AI when it moves faster than policy? What’s the difference between AI awareness and capability? How do we transform curricula, assessment, and teaching while maintaining academic integrity? What does good implementation look like?

Browse 90+ weeks of archives exploring these questions from someone in the middle of answering them.

I also co-host Adjunct Intelligence with Dale Leszczynski at RMIT Australia. We bring university leaders, EdTech partners, and educators into conversation about the challenges and opportunities of AI in higher education.
