Taking the AI course was really transformative, not just learning how to effectively AI prompt and how to get the information I want, but applying it to all kinds of different aspects of my life like the AI art I do, creative story writing and getting a new job!
As a mom, I really appreciate that I can learn whenever I have time. The accessible formats that it offers really make it possible to do this and learn at your own pace and make sure that my kids are also learning technology... these courses make me able to teach it to them and help them understand this next generation of technology.
As a physician, I can create scenarios or applications on how to use it (generative AI) in clinical care or teaching. If I know my patients are using ChatGPT to diagnose their medical issues, and I know how to prompt engineer, I can better understand what information they have received from these tools and have informed conversations on their condition.
