Intro to AI: Advanced Prompting Techniques

Introduction to Artificial Intelligence Series
This series of monthly workshops will introduce participants to the fundamentals of artificial intelligence (AI) and effective prompt writing techniques, allowing adults in Arlington to harness the power of AI tools to enhance their daily lives and productivity. Each workshop will include interactive demonstrations, hands-on practice sessions, peer practice, Q&A opportunities, take-home resources and optional exercises. Participants are encouraged to bring a laptop if possible, but are still welcome to attend the workshop without one.
This series is intended to build on itself so the presenter encourages attendance at all four, but registrants can attend single events as well. Please register separately for each event you plan to attend.
REGISTRATION RECOMMENDED. By registering you will receive event updates. Seating at the program is first-come, first-served, and registration does not guarantee you a seat.
