- The AI Edge in Academia: Unlocking Time for Teaching and Research
-
December 2, 2024, 12:00 pm-1:00 pm
Registration for the virtual workshop will open soon.
The session, "The AI Edge in Academia: Unlocking Time for Teaching and Research," will explore how AI-driven tools can streamline essential faculty workflow processes such as crafting letters of recommendation (LORs), generating biography templates, summarizing course evaluations, and drafting end of year faculty reports (Lyterati). By integrating AI, faculty can enhance efficiency and focus on higher-impact activities, including teaching and research. Participants will also gain insights into optimizing AI tools for handling tasks like course evaluation summaries and drafting narratives such as end-of-year Lyterati reports. Additionally, the session will address similarities and valuable differences between ChatGPT and Perplexity. Participants will leave the session with tips for crafting prompts and real-world examples of how AI can unlock new levels of productivity.
