AI in Education (and Beyond)

EVENT DESCRIPTION:
How is artificial intelligence reshaping education – and our lives?

From a quick tour of where the technology came from, to what it actually takes to make AI useful (and accessible) in real classrooms, we’ll explore both the promise and the pitfalls. Expect a balanced, engaging look at practical opportunities, real concerns, and the ethical questions that will define the future of learning in an AI-infused world.

Join Steven Bedrick (nerd and badass researcher) and Jackie Wirz (nerd and tech ED) for a lively, approachable Science on Tap conversation.

Jackie Wirz, PhD, (WIS Advisory Board Member!) is a biochemist by training, a nonprofit executive by profession, and a teller of stories. She is a data management specialist, academic administrator, and as a nonprofit executive. In her spare time she is the MC (mistress of ceremonies) for a variety of events including Science on Tap!

Dr. Steven Bedrick is an Associate Professor at OHSU where his research focuses on the intersection of natural language processing and healthcare. He is also interested in the societal and ethical implications that arise from speech and language technology
