SUMMARY:Understanding Artificial Intelligence (AI)
DESCRIPTION:\n\nJoin this workshop to explore the complex and ever-changing 
 world of artificial intelligence (AI). Gain a thorough understanding of 
 AI\, starting from its roots and tracing its current influence across 
 multiple industries. Learn about the different types of AI\, focusing on 
 generative AI (gAI)\, and explore how machine learning (ML) powers 
 AI.\n\nIn this session\, we will cover ethical considerations\, showcase 
 various AI tools like ChatGPT and Dall-E\, and explore AI's impact\, 
 including its practical integration into tools used at JMU\, such as 
 Copilot and Gradescope. This will give you a hands-on understanding of how 
 AI is being used in real-world scenarios including here at JMU. \n\nThis 
 workshop is designed for AI newcomers and early adopters. It will include 
 informative lectures\, but it will also foster interactive discussions and 
 a showcase of AI tools\, ensuring that you are actively involved in the 
 learning process.\n\nObjectives\n\nBy the time we complete this workshop\,
