About this event
Generative AI is only as good as the questions you know how to ask it. In the final Hack Your Practice session, Armin and Emma explain how you can level up your research through savvy prompt engineering, creative image generating, and using AI-powered software to transcribe audio and automatically remove the filler words (such as “ums" and "ahs”) from your videos. They'll also walk you through their original AI prototypes and show you how to create your own research tool with a generative AI.
About this series
In 2023, the ADA Engagement and Impact portfolio is extending its skills-based capacity building workshops to offer a series of ‘hack your practice’ workshops co-delivered by Associate Professor Emma A. Jane (UNSW School of Arts and Media,) and Dr Armin Alimardani (School of Law, University of Wollongong).
Each session will introduce you to quick and easy ways to enhance the impact of your research communications, creating the capacity and context you need to effectively profile the value and meaning of your research to a diversity of audiences and publics.
Workshops are open to staff and HDR students in UNSW and University of Wollongong.
Workshop leaders
Emma A. Jane - Emma’s enduring research obsession is the state of the internet and what to do about it. She suspects the answer probably has something to do with complexity theory and design but she’s still not sure exactly what. When she’s not teaching digital entrepreneurship at UNSW, she enjoys prompting AIs to generate images of exuberant axolotls on their way to queer discos and generally nerding out. Her latest book, Diagnosis Normal, was published by Penguin Random House in March, 2022.
Armin Alimardani - If law, artificial intelligence and innovation were a Venn diagram, you’d find Armin smack bang in the middle. He’s a lecturer at the University of Wollongong where he researches the social, ethical and legal impact of emerging technologies. His hobbies include e-sports, sausage dogs and gadgets. And no, he’s not using a filter. His hair is actually that colour.
