About Our AI Future
Join Abby Dowd, AUT's Director of AI Strategy and Transformation, as he discusses how artificial intelligence is changing the future of education. Professor Brett Cowan, Dean of the Faculty of Health and Environmental Sciences, will host the session. This hour-long fireside chat looks into how AUT plans to utilise AI on campus to support staff and ensure the responsible use of this powerful technology. It is also an excellent opportunity to learn about AI’s possibilities and how AUT is adapting to this digital change.
