The 13th free online advocacy conference hosted by Temple University Beasley School of Law focused on artificial intelligence – what it is, how it is or can be used in advocacy education, a cautionary tale about its potential downsides, and a report from a study on the impact of AI in hiring.
The Conference was titled USING AI IN ADVOCACY EDUCATION, and presenters were members of the national advocacy education community, one practitioner, and Drexel University’s Director of the Center for Applied AI and Business Analytics and the Dornsife Office for Experiential Learning.
