Thriving in the Age of AI
Artificial intelligence is everywhere. From media headlines to the hallways of Congress to conversations at family dinner tables, it is a subject that both fascinates and intimidates. While AI may seem daunting, the University of Florida is educating students and the community on how best to leverage this powerful tool—and build harmony between humans and AI.
AI and You
From smartphone apps to navigation services to new technology for jobs, AI has transformed our daily
tasks and change the 21st-century workforce. If we can prepare America’s workforce at speed and scale to embrace working with AI, there can be tremendous promise for innovation, equity, and the creation of world-changing solutions.
