UM Gen AI: What we learned at the Provost's Seminar on Teaching
from Undercooled: A Materials Education Podcast · host Steve Yalisove and Tim Chambers
Tim and Steve went to the University of Michigan's Provost's Seminar on Teaching on Friday. The entire day was focussed on the new UM Generative AI. They have developed their own UM GPT engine as well as a scriptable version called Maizey that can scrape Canvas course sites and provide the GPT model a very curated data set that can be queried by students. We discuss what we learned and talk about some of the capabilities we would like to see.YouTube link (audio only):https://youtu.be/61eahIzzpu8?si=zW4NnSSs1eZdO7MUThis episode is sponsored by the University of Michigan Materials Science and Engineering department (https://mse.engin.umich.edu).
