The use of Artificial Intelligence during studies

The aim of the training is to familiarize participants with practical applications of generative AI tools in the study process, using mainly ChatGPT as an example.

The workshop is hands-on and is primarily aimed at students, but it is also open to anyone interested in the topic.
