The AI Gourmet

The AI Gourmet: A Recipe for the Future
In this course, students will critically assess whether Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools democratize access to professional knowledge by generating a cookbook of recipes using AI-powered chatbots. During the activity, students will learn how AI tools generate content, ways in which AI tools enhance creativity and exploration, the pitfalls of AI tools (including bias, discrimination, and copyright violations), and why AI tools generate anxiety and fear yet also promise hope for a better future.
