Making AI Work for You and Your Team

Do you have an administrative task, data puzzle, or manual workflow that eats up too much time? Join ITS and the AI Operational Working Group for a workshop. We’ll brainstorm how existing campus AI tools could help with potential team projects or streamline departmental tasks. Each session is an opportunity to get feedback and ideas from others on how you might use AI tools at Smith and further explore the potential viability of using AI within your department/team. 

Sessions are limited to ensure focused, productive conversations. We'll choose a topic theme for each session.   

When:

• Wed, Jun 17, 3:00 - 4:00 p.m.

• Mon, Jun 22, 3:00 - 4:00 p.m.
