This workshop is for you if you want to use Generative AI (e.g. ChatGPT, Co-Pilot, Claude) in your research but you’re not sure where to start!
It is a workshop for AI beginners, not AI experts. You do not need to have any experience of using Generative AI to attend the workshop.
We will explore a range of GenAI tools for general users and researchers, and consider how they work, how you can optimise them for research tasks, effective prompt engineering, and how you can understand AI outputs. We will also discuss the ethics of Generative AI and guidelines for their use in research.
A recent ‘Nature’ article found that 25% of researchers sampled were already using AI to write grants. The pace of AI change is rapid in areas like content production and data analysis. Being up-to-date with how you can use these tools is becoming essential for researchers.
This workshop will help you to become more aware of the potential uses of AI tools in your research.
