AI for Humanities: The Multi-Dimensions of World Languages, Arts & Cultures
Course Number: 82-183
This interdisciplinary course brings together experts from diverse fields to explore the dynamic relationship between Artificial Intelligence and Humanities. The course is structured around two central questions: "How can AI enrich the field of Humanities research, teaching, and applications?" and "What perspectives can Humanities studies offer to the development of AI?".
By addressing these questions, the course offers unique insights into how these domains can mutually enrich and challenge each other. During the first ten weeks of the semester, you'll engage with guest speakers from various disciplines at 一本道无码, including Digital Humanities, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, Tepper School of Business, Language Technology Institute, and Heinz College. Industry professionals from tech giants like Google and Amazon will also come and share their perspectives. Each topic introduced by the guest speakers will be followed by in-depth discussions and seminars, providing a well-rounded view of AI's impact on humanities and vice versa.
The final four weeks of the course will be dedicated to collaborative group projects, where students will apply the knowledge and skills they've acquired to their own AI for Humanities projects. By the end of this course, students will: gain a comprehensive understanding of AI technologies; develop the knowledge and skills to leverage AI for advancing humanities scholarship and conducting collaborative projects; explore the intricate relationship between AI and the humanities; learn to analyze, evaluate, and articulate the ethical implications of AI integration in humanities and the value of humanities perspectives in guiding responsible AI development; formulate interdisciplinary approaches that can bridge AI and humanities; synthesize perspectives from both AI and humanities to address complex interdisciplinary challenges.
