Mock Class: "Innovations with Generative AI: Gliding with ChatGPT"

Wednesday, September 30, 2026 at 7:00 PM until 8:00 PMEastern Daylight Time UTC -04:00

Most people think of AI tools like ChatGPT as just souped-up search engines, but that’s the wrong mental model. In this mock class, Professor James Intriligator invites you to explore a new way of thinking about AI—not as something you query, but something you glide with. Through real-time demonstration, immersive examples, and lots of gliding, participants will experience how large language models can become tools for exploration, creativity, and insight across fields and futures. Whether you're curious about technology, design, communication, or just the shape of what's coming next, this session will challenge assumptions, spark imagination, teach you lots of gliding tricks, and leave you seeing both AI and your own thinking in a whole new light.
