[Ahs-faculty] What is AI good for? Practical Workshop at the CIS

[Jeanette Kohl]

Dear colleagues,
I thought this practical workshop over lunch on April 22, 12:30 - 1:50 PM, might be of interest. Please also share with colleagues in and outside of CHASS.

WHAT IS AI GOOD FOR?
Join us for a workshop with Goldberry Long (Creative Writing, UCR)

Faculty at UCR juggle teaching, research, and service—each demanding different cognitive resources. In this hands-on workshop, we’ll explore how ChatGPT can help streamline cognitively undemanding but time-consuming tasks, freeing up more time and mental space for the higher-order thinking that our roles require. Participants are invited to bring real items from their to-do lists—whether related to research, committee work, or teaching prep—and experiment with using AI to tackle them. Along the way, we’ll each consider our personal boundaries: What feels like a helpful shortcut or useful tool, and what feels like crossing an ethical line? Rather than debating the ethics of AI in the abstract, we’ll reflect on acceptable use through practical experience, carving out our own informed and principled paths forward.

Limited to 20 CHASS Faculty. Lunch will be provided. Registration required.
Sponsored by the Being Human Initiative at the Center for Ideas & Society
