Abstract
The integration of AI into the contemporary university represents a profound redefinition of what it means to 'know' and 'understand'. This article explores how AI, by intensifying Weberian rationalization, threatens academic autonomy and freedom, transforming the university into a space of 'algorithmocracy'. It is argued that hermeneutics is crucial for resisting the commodification of knowledge and for redefining the university as a space of wisdom and dialogue in the face of the algorithmic 'iron cage'. Critical reflection on its ethical and meaningful implications is essential for constructing a university reality that prioritizes human flourishing over instrumental efficiencyKeywords:
