Degree Outline
AI Technology & Training

In designing a new degree program for the community college, I was looking to fill a niche developing in the tech world - the space between an advanced AI developer and the end user. Particularly with the emergent use of generative AI across many disciplines, having people dedicated to training AI in an ethical and equitable way is important to avoid perpetuating harmful biases and stereotypes.

In many respects, I was also just interested to see what I could do with this idea! Significant consultation with computer science experts is necessary for this degree proposal were to move forward. Despite extensive research, I do not have the subject matter expertise to know whether the listed major requirements accomplish exactly the goals I envisioned, so computer science faculty would be vital to making this plan a reality. I would also be interested to hear from industry employers to better understand the skill-sets they seek for positions in AI training and as an AI prompter.
