The University of Buffalo is hosting a roundtable discussion on the topic of ChatGPT, the cutting-edge language model developed by OpenAI. The event will bring together experts from various fields to discuss the implications and applications of this technology. This promises to be a thought-provoking and enlightening conversation on the future of AI and its impact on society. All members of the university community and the public are welcome to attend and contribute to the discussion. Don’t miss this chance to learn about the latest developments in AI and engage with leading experts in the field!

That text above was written by ChatGPT. And while it’s not going to replace the people behind the text here at the DSSN (*phew*), it and the other AI tools are worth discussing in terms of ethics, creators’ rights, assistive technology, academic integrity, and so much more! Come join the Digital Scholarship Studio and Network (DSSN) for a real roundtable discussion with UB scholars as we talk about what to consider when we actually talk about ChatGPT. Registration and Zoom link available here.

Panelists for the roundtable include:

Michael Kicey (Humanities Librarian)

Patrick McDevitt (Director of the Honors College)

Krishna Rajan (Eric Bloch Chair and Chair of Materials Design & Innovation)

Michael Rembis (History and Disability Studies)

Shu Wan (PhD student, History).
