Update 10/31/2024: See the most current information about AI Task Force town halls.
Because artificial intelligence has the potential to transform how we work, teach, learn and conduct research, each one of our voices is important to shape the University’s vision and strategy for AI. All faculty, staff and students may contribute in the following ways:
Read the report
The AI Task Force recently released its report with recommendations, available in narrative and slide format.
Take the survey by 5 p.m., Oct. 25
Responding to the survey by Oct. 25 is one way for you to contribute to and shape the vision of a human-centered and equitable, AI-fueled transformation in teaching, learning, research, student success and operations. Survey results will help the task force to better understand how UW community members are already engaging with AI technologies and the impacts of AI on learning, work, and research. The main section of the survey addresses the proposed vision, strategy, recommendations and roadmap for AI as outlined in the AI Task Force report.
Attend an online town hall
Please join us to learn more about AI at the UW with a weekly series of town halls from late October through early December.
We begin on Thursday, Oct. 24, with “What is AI?” that is designed to build a shared understanding of AI’s foundations, opportunities, potential, and risks. This session will set the stage for future discussions by demystifying AI and exploring how it may impact our work, research and daily lives.
The next session will be Wed., Oct. 30 on “AI for Research and Research in AI.”
Scheduling is underway for the following town halls and details will be announced soon.
- AI for Student Success
- AI for Education
- AI for Teaching and Learning
- AI Infrastructure
- AI for Administration
Each town hall will explore a different aspect of the future of AI at the UW and will include a moderated question and response session where everyone is encouraged to share their perspectives. All town halls will start at noon PST and end at 1:20 p.m. Check back here next week for the YouTube link that will give you access.
The more voices and input we have, the more equitable and ethical our strategies and approaches to AI will be. Thank you for your participation and contributions to this ongoing conversation.
