Welcome to our first asynchronous sessions, the goal here is not only to get to know each other but also test the waters for AI in education. Your first assignment in this session will be to use AI to create an “About me” piece of media that you can use in your classes! You will get some foundational information about Large Language Models (LLMs) and Text-to-image AI generative tools before you actually sign up for free versions to use for your assignment. Once you have your assignment done you can post it so we can all meet each other. 

Before you get started on the reading, take a look around because you’ll likely find resources that will help you. (Watch out for rabbit holes!)

Rabbit Hole Example:
Here is an example of one rabbit hole we found as we explored how ChatGPT might help you with your "About Me" assignment. You'll notice that the prompt on this link was not clear enough to ensure who the "About Me" was actually about! The intent was for it to be about you, the execution was all about who or what ChatGPT is...

Now that you know that our goal today is to use AI to create an “About me” about you, and you’ve been warned about rabbit holes, and encouraged to look for resources, let’s get right to it!
