"AI at Kent State" Series
Hosted by the Division of Information Technology
Presented virtually by Microsoft Teams
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is perhaps the hottest topic in any conversation today. But does it make sense as a business strategy in higher ed?
All we really want to know is... can AI give Kent State a competitive edge for an acceptable cost?
Do the AI solutions we're hearing about from our vendor partners (and everywhere else...) actually create strong value and ROI? Could the cost, plus the necessary integration with current processes, plus change management, possibly be worth it at a time when every resource is so precious?
Let's ask the vendors themselves! The Division of IT is gathering leading voices throughout 2024 to engage with Kent State University staff and faculty on AI's application in our context. Please join us in these interactive, highly personalized sessions for answers to questions like:
- What are the emerging trends and uses of AI in higher education, especially in marketing, recruitment, student success and advancement?
- Prove it to us. How do you know that your AI solution will have strong ROI for higher ed in general and Kent State in particular?
- How do you handle sticky topics like AI ethics, risks, potential bias in learning models, and data security?
Please refer any questions to Sameer Jaleel, Associate CIO, at sjaleel1@kent.edu.
