Reading Group (Academic Integrity Week) Online
Join us for an engaging reading group where we delve into the world of generative artificial intelligence and DeepSeek!
What is the event is about?
With the arrival of DeepSeek, generative artificial intelligence has once again come into the spotlight. We'll discuss the capabilities, applications, and ethical considerations of cutting-edge generative AI. Whether you're just curious about the new technology or you’re a generative AI enthusiast, this reading group is designed for people to come together and learn from each other.
What to expect from the event?
This will be an interactive, discussion run online via zoom. Attendees will discuss the readings that have been provided ahead of the reading group (see below). Discussion questions are also provided to guide the conversation.
Disclaimer: Please note that students are not required to create an account in DeepSeek or download the app. DeepSeek is not approved for use within Australian Government systems due to unacceptable security risks. The Australian government has asked citizens to be very careful while using DeepSeek AI.
