AI: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly In-Person

Facilitators: Michael Young with support from David Kwasny 

Artificial Intelligence is transforming how we learn, work, and interact—but not without raising important questions. In this thought-provoking workshop, we’ll explore the promise, pitfalls, and practical realities of AI in today’s world and tomorrow’s tech landscape.  

Topics include:  

  1. Custom GPTs with ChatGPT: What are AI agents, and how can they be used for more personalized, task-driven learning?  
  2. Deep Research vs. Standard AI Chatbots: How do AI tools support or hinder critical thinking and active learning?  
  3. AI Generated Video Content: From automated editing to deepfakes—exploring the creative and ethical dimensions.  
  4. AI Usage in Virtual Reality: How virtual reality and AI are converging to reshape education, training, and entertainment.  
  5. Future Tech & Everyday AI: A look ahead at how AI will be integrated into daily life—from smart assistants to immersive environments.
