Goal: Help students understand what generative AI is, how to use it safely, and how to think clearly about what it can and cannot do — even when internet access is limited. This beginner-friendly mini-course will strengthen your digital literacy skills through clear, practical sessions free of technical jargon.
The mini-course will take place once a week on Wednesdays at 20:00 MSK.
The course will be led by Daisy Thomas, an AI systems architect, researcher, author, and director of AI policy. Daisy holds certifications in AI ethics and foundational AI technologies from leading institutions. She is also an advocate for responsible artificial intelligence and civic education. In addition to Daisy’s expertise, the course will include guest speakers who will bring their own perspectives and insights.
