Join us for an exciting and insightful session with **Yanina Bellini Saibene**, as she explores the integration of **GitHub Copilot** (and other **Large Language Models**, LLMs) with **R**!

**In her own words**:
*“In this talk, I will demonstrate how to use GitHub Copilot within RStudio to code with R. I will also show other large language models (LLMs) and showcase examples of wrangling data and developing R packages. I will also highlight both opportunities and challenges when integrating LLMs into an educational context.”*

The integration of **LLMs** offers both **exciting opportunities** and **complex challenges**, especially within an **educational setting**. Yanina will share her insights into how these technologies can **enhance productivity** and **support learning**, while also discussing the potential risks and considerations when using AI in education.

This session is perfect for anyone curious about how AI-powered tools like GitHub Copilot can **enhance** your R programming experience, whether you’re a beginner or an advanced R user. 🚀

**Why You Should Attend**:
• **Hands-on demonstration** of how to use GitHub Copilot with RStudio.
• Learn how LLMs can assist with **data wrangling** and **R package development**.
• Discuss the **benefits and challenges** of integrating LLMs into the **educational space**.
• Explore ways to **optimize your workflow** and speed up coding tasks with AI support.

This event promises to be both **informative** and **thought-provoking**, and we are excited to have you join us for this session. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to explore the future of coding with R and AI!
