IN PERSON: AI is advancing so rapidly that it’s hard to predict exactly what we'll cover. Chatbots are now so powerful that, in just 30 minutes, we created a way to "talk with Pauli Murray." Two months ago, Sora released direct text-to-video generation, allowing us to recreate scenes of African American beaches in 1950s NC. With Tripo’s 2D-to-3D tech, we can transform ChatGPT creations into objects for 3D printing or augmented reality. We're even designing climate-resilient plants and “planting” them in school gardens. AI can generate complex songs, complete with lyrics, in under a minute. The best part? These tools require no coding experience—English majors often make some of the most creative AI users! We’ll showcase these technologies and guide you in using them to create. | Facilitated discussion, Active Skill Learning.
