Day 1
Day 2
Our upcoming workshop will explore cutting-edge advancements in AI that have the potential to revolutionize scientific research and healthcare. A recent Harvard Business School of more than 700 knowledge workers found that the use of AI increased the speed of work, more tasks could be completed, and above all, the quality of work results increased!
The workshop will cover these basic topics:
Why use AI? Productivity and quality increase.
How do LLMs work?
Prompting like a Pro
Using AI for structuring text, and telling a story
Using AI for brainstorming of experiments and projects
Using AI for decision making, introspection, career development and for training of interpersonal interactions
Good Scientific Practice using AI Assistants: plagiarism, copyright, usage for brainstorming, publishing and for grant writing
In addition to the main topics, we will briefly touch on the superior reasoning capabilities of Claude 3, the emergence of local large language models (LLMs) for enhanced data security, and the potential of LLMs to outperform humans in fact-checking.
