Note: AI is still changing faster than ever! The AI models of 2025 are vastly different from even the 2023 models! CETL always recommends conducting online research and trying out AI tools and models to see what best fits your needs. Also, please consider information privacy and cybersecurity concerns when trying these tools.

Too Many to Count!

There are hundreds, if not thousands of new AI tools and models on the internet. While the CETL cannot capture or test them all, if you find a tool you're interested in - let us know! We can try it out with you and consider the pros/cons and possibilities for implementation!

New Software/AI Tools at Texas Wesleyan

Please note that the Texas Wesleyan CETL does not make determinations for campus-wide software/technology purchases or new implementations. If you have questions or ideas for new software purchases, please contact your supervisor, chair or dean.

At this time, TXWES does not provide paid licensure to any AI models or tools for employees.
