What exactly does AI signify for ordinary individuals outside the realm of AI expertise? How should we approach its constant transformations and innovations? How can we accurately perceive and make use of it? We warmly welcome interested students to join Professor Liu and share their thoughts on AI.

 

这期《一期一会咖啡茶室·番外期》我们特别邀请到了Ira A. Fulton工程学院的刘欢教授来和我们一起探讨AI人工智能的意义以及对我们未来生活的创新和影响。对于普通非AI领域的普通人来说,AI到底意味着什么?我们该如何面对它不断的变革和创新?我们该如何正确去看待并且使用它?欢迎感兴趣的同学和刘教授一起来谈谈你对AI的想法。
