What is Artificial Intelligence? An Update

What is Artificial Intelligence? presented by Dick Mills

Join us in the Digital Lab to learn about Artificial Intelligence and ChatGPT from Dick Mills. Recent headlines about AI tend to extremes: extinction; end of humanity; save the world; revolutionary! Don't let someone else tell you what to think. Learn to use AIs like ChatGPT yourself and form your own opinion. If you heard Dick's talk last year, there will be some updates.

Dick Mills is a retired engineer and software developer. In the 1960s he worked at G.E.'s Apollo Support Department with the people who built the Saturn 5 moon rocket. After retirement, he spent 12 years cruising the world on a sailboat with his wife Libby. After that, he became just a snowbird, spending summers in Vermont, and winters in Florida. Since January 2023, Dick has been devoted to the study of modern AI, how it works and what it is good for. See Dick's TEDx talk about the embracing change and check out his AI sources.
