This interactive workshop offers a comprehensive exploration of artificial intelligence (AI) and its wide-reaching impact across various sectors, with a focus on how these advancements intersect with education, ethics, and community well-being. As AI rapidly reshapes industries from healthcare to journalism and the arts, it’s important for educators, community organizations, and local businesses to consider how these changes affect long-term resilience and everyday life in communities across Wisconsin.

- AI in the Arts and Journalism: How AI is influencing creative industries and media, with a focus on creative process, authenticity, and innovation.

Our goal is to engage educators, business leaders, and community partners in meaningful conversations. This workshop offers tools, knowledge, and a network of experts to explore how AI can be used responsibly and effectively in education, business, and beyond.
