The University of South Carolina's College of Arts and Sciences is integrating AI into its curriculum across disciplines, with courses that explore AI's applications, ethics, and impact. English, philosophy, design, and psychology professors are leading classes that help students critically engage with AI--from analyzing Shakespeare to navigating ethical questions. Supported by the McCausland Innovation Fund and the Provost's AI Teaching Fellowship, these courses prepare students to use AI thoughtfully in their fields.
James L. Solomon, Jr., died on Friday, November 29. Solomon had an impactful and illustrious civic career at the local and state levels.
This project will develop a dynamic generative artificial intelligence (DyGenAI) paradigm to transform the generative AI methodology from a static paradigm into a computationally efficient dynamic paradigm.
