Events
Public AI Summit
I am an organizing team member of the Public AI Summit, a two-day virtual event designed to make AI understandable for the general public. The inaugural Summit featured keynote talks by leading AI experts, including Arvind Narayanan, Kathy Pham, Anna Mills, and Maha Bali, as well as interactive workshops that gave participants hands-on opportunities to explore AI tools, risks, and possibilities. Free and open to all, the event brought together over 1,400 participants and created space for conversations about the current state of AI, what we’ve learned about it so far, and how to prepare for what might come next.
Artificial Intelligence “Show-and-Tell”
Discover how Harvard faculty across the arts and sciences are using the latest generative artificial intelligence technology in the classroom. During this event, highlighted by dynamic live demos, I showcased innovative ideas and practical methods for responsibly integrating AI into your pedagogy.
Faculty Voices: Harvard GenAI Library for Teaching & Learning
The videos in this library, created by the Office of the Vice Provost for Advances in Learning (VPAL), explore the myriad ways Harvard faculty use generative AI tools to support and enhance teaching, learning, and research. Here, I highlight a comparative writing exercise that uses ChatGPT to help students recognize the value of human perspective, nuance, and creativity by critically analyzing the differences between their own essays and AI-generated writing.
Empowering Humanity: Youth and the Evolving Digital Landscape
As an invited speaker for the 5th annual Harvard Undergraduate UNICEF Club Conference, I presented on a panel focused on AI and Misinformation. This conference explored the ways in which technology affects children around the world through shifts in global dynamics and offered perspectives on artificial intelligence and the progression of the Internet, misinformation, mental health, and cybersecurity.
