Whether your job is in marketing, finance, law or medicine, artificial intelligence is quickly becoming a desired skill in the workplace.
Employers want new graduates who can work fluently with AI — people who don’t just dabble in it but who really understand how to use these tools, when to trust them and when to question their results.
MPR News guest host Chris Farrell explores how AI is being woven into college courses, what students are doing with these tools and how colleges are preparing them to use AI responsibly.
Guests:
Thomas Feeney is an associate professor of philosophy and director of a new master’s degree program in Artificial Intelligence Leadership at the University of St. Thomas.
Chase Peterson is a professor and artificial intelligence faculty fellow at Metro State University. He teaches the course, Applied Artificial Intelligence for Business, which explores AI technologies and their applications in business.
