Location: SAL G.01 and Online (Zoom) 
Speaker: Dr Alp Sungu, Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania

Topic: Generative AI. Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is poised to revolutionize how humans work, and has already demonstrated promise in significantly improving human productivity. However, a key remaining question is how generative AI affects learning, namely, how humans acquire new skills as they perform tasks. This kind of skill learning is critical to long-term productivity gains, especially in domains where generative AI is fallible and human experts must check its outputs. 

Audience: ISI (MG500) faculty and research students are prioritised, other DoM colleagues and PhD students are welcome.
