AI is in Your Classroom Even if You Didn't Know It!

Wed, 18 January, 2023 3:00pm - 4:00pm

Hybrid Event - This presentation is being offered both in person in Gelman Library's Churchill Center (2130 H Street, NW, Room 101) and via Zoom.

Join colleagues from across GW to learn more about how recent advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies (such as, chatGPT) are now being used in university classrooms, labs, and offices. From AI that write original papers, essays, and poems, to those that create art or write computer code, these technologies are quickly impacting on many aspects of higher education. In this initial faculty conversation, we will discuss what each of us should know about these recent advancements, and how we can grapple with the multiple implications for our teaching, research, and service.

The event is a collaboration of colleagues in humanities, social sciences, and STEM disciplines, and will focus on the promises and perils of AI in higher education as the first of an on-going series at GW.
