What happens when you need AI to be more than just another browser tab?

Join Immersive Learning Initiatives for "Beyond the Chatbot: Building an AI Workshop," our final Tech Talk of the fall semester.

Bob Soulliere, Assistant Vice President for Digital Services and Solutions, will share lessons from building "the Forge" and "the Hive," which are his personal computing environments combining local language models, collaborating paid AI agents, programming, and creative tools. Expect practical examples, honest missteps, and cheesy references to old movies and TV shows.

The talk will be held on Wednesday, Nov. 18 at 2:30 p.m. in Dreamscape Learn on the second floor of Lied Library. Please register to attend.

A Q&A will follow the talk. Light refreshments will be provided.

Tech Talks are hosted by Immersive Learning Initiatives, a partnership between the University Libraries, the Office of Teaching and Learning Innovation, and the Office of Information Technology.
