Netflix’s Reed Hastings Donates $50 Million to Bowdoin College to Launch AI Program with Liberal Arts Focus
Brunswick, Maine — Reed Hastings, co-founder and executive chairman of Netflix, has committed $50 million to Bowdoin College, marking one of the most significant gifts in the institution’s 229-year history. The donation will fund a new artificial intelligence initiative designed to integrate AI into the heart of a liberal arts education. The Hastings Scholars Program in Artificial Intelligence, as it will be called, will support new faculty hires, student scholarships, interdisciplinary research, and the creation of AI-focused learning spaces. Bowdoin’s leadership emphasized that this initiative aims to equip students with both technical AI literacy and a deep understanding of its ethical, social, and philosophical implications.

When Meta started developing its flagship AI model, employees faced an ethical question, Alex Reisner writes. The program would need to be trained on a huge amount of high-quality writing to be competitive with products such as ChatGPT. Should they just pirate it?
