MIDAS and the Michigan AI Lab will host a faculty workshop with the theme of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) for research. All faculty members who are interested in deploying GAI for their research are welcome.

GAI, such as ChatGPT and Bard, use sophisticated algorithms and extensive datasets to autonomously generate content. By leveraging their ability to learn patterns from existing data, generative AI models can provide valuable support in various research domains, aiding researchers by assisting in tasks like writing scientific papers, hypothesizing new ideas, summarizing literature, and providing experimental design and analysis.

This workshop will offer a unique launchpad for collaboration and exploration of GAI’s impact on research. The workshop features speakers from academia and industry, who will present use cases on GAI-faciliated research in a wide range of research fields such as drug discovery and architectural design, as well as technical, ethical and infrastructural considerations for deploying GAI in research. Extensive roundtable discussion among attendees will follow. Our aim is to launch interdisciplinary research projects and teams, and generate new insights on the future development of GAI and its impact on research.

Location : Room 0460, Central Campus Classroom Building, 1225 Geddes Ave, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA
