AI is changing how we work, learn and interact with information. But how much do you really know about what’s happening behind the screen?

Our Intro to AI tutorial breaks down the basics of generative AI, including how it’s trained, how that training impacts its outputs and why those outputs aren’t always accurate or unbiased.

Learn how to evaluate AI-generated information and make informed, ethical decisions about when and how to use these tools. Explore the five-module tutorial➡️ wvu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9B1QIUYCOGhtI5U
