Working group on AI and the Humanities Two open sessions next week to identify issues to work on UMBC's Dresher Center for the Humanities has a new working group on AI and the Humanities led by Professor Tim Phin from the Department of Ancient Studies. The group will hold two open sessions next week in the Dresher Center conference room (PAHB 216) and online to discuss and identify issues to work on. Here is a description of the group. 

Generative AI is transforming the landscape of higher education. There are ethical, pedagogical, and humanistic questions around this technology that will be best answered by the work of a combined group of humanists. This group will provide a place for humanists from many fields to come together to contend with the issues central to the Humanities and generative AI: particularly issues surrounding the purpose of this technology, the impact it has on human communities, and the future role of the university in navigating the concerns raised by generative AI. This group will be a place to advocate for the importance of the Humanities in any conversation at UMBC pertaining to AI. We recognize that human intelligence is necessary for us to evaluate the place of artificial intelligence in society.
