Introduction to Generative AI Online
Generative AI (GenAI) is a type of artificial intelligence system that automatically generates content in response to written prompts, and outputs may be in the form of writing, images, music, or other forms. Although GenAI can be a useful tool to use to assist with understanding and creative tasks, care must be taken to understand the accuracy of what it produces, and to ensure that you are using GenAI ethically as a learner.
During this online session, you will:
- Find out more about GenAI tools, and how to evaluate them
- Understand GenAI in the context of completing your studies and assignments
- Learn more about effective prompt writing
- Practise using Copilot to write your own prompts and evaluate the outputs
This workshop contributes to your digital capabilities development related to the use of artificial intelligence in the areas of information, data and media literacy, proficiency and productivity and digital creation, problem solving and innovation.
To find out more about developing your digital capabilities through workshops and self-directed activities, visit the Library website if you are a student, and the OD&PL website for staff.
