Nina Rhines and Connor Pummill – We felt that this class was crucial to our learning about how generative AI works and how this new technology will impact our futures. As time goes on, it becomes more and more imperative to understand this technology, especially as we start to enter the workforce. While we recommend that everyone take this class or a similar class, we recognize that not everyone has the time or bandwidth in their schedules, so we wanted to create a resource that other students could use in order to educate themselves on generative AI. In this class, we discussed that one of the dangers of AI is that if there is unequal access to this technology, educational and wealth gaps will only increase, so this project is our attempt at increasing access to education on AI and decreasing these gaps.
This is how the University of Michigan AI Information Hub was born. We styled this website as a news site/blog and tested the limitations of generative AI by making the design of each individual page different styles. We based the content of this website on the main topics we discussed during class, such as how AI will impact the workforce and education, the benefits and dangers of AI, our recommendations for regulating AI on the university level, and a list of resources for students to learn more. We also included an About Us and a How This Was Created Page in order to give some background on the project to viewers. Overall, our goal was to build off of the content discussed in class to replicate this course in an accessible way for others to learn more about generative AI.
