Generative AI in Academia

  • Monday, April 8 - 11am

  • With the advent of engines like ChatGPT, DALL-E, Midjourney, and Bard (among others), generative artificial intelligence has become an integral part of 21st-century culture. But is there a place for generative AI in academia? And if so, how best can it be implemented? Join us as we welcome Patrick Jones (Director of Supervised Ministries), Michael Sleasman (Director of the Center for Bioethics and Human Dignity), Rebekka Greenlee (Director of Masters Programs), and Chris Miller (Director of PC Support, Media Services, & Instructional Technology) for a conversation about how we can be wise stewards of technology in our studies.
