Registrations for the "AI in Research: A User's Perspective" workshop are now open. This is a paid, hands-on, 3 day workshop (09:00 am - 05:00 PM) aimed at Masters Students, PhD scholars, Post Docs, Faculty and Professionals.

If you are tired of wondering whether AI could actually help your research but don't know where to start beyond the basic chatbot experience, this intensive hands-on workshop will get you there. This workshop is for you if you want to:

• Figure out when to trust AI and when not to, because knowing the limitations is just as important as knowing the possibilities.
• Master the art of talking to AI to get dramatically better results (hint: it's not about being polite!).
  Compare research-focused AI tools and their capabilities, and find the right mix of free and paid options that actually make sense for your budget and research needs.
• Build your own AI assistants that work exactly how you need them to, without having to learn programming.
• Walk away with a toolkit that is ready to use. We are talking actual AI workflows installed and configured on your laptop, not just theoretical knowledge.
• Handle the tricky ethical stuff responsibly, from publication guidelines to data privacy, so you can use AI confidently without stepping on landmines.
• In short, this workshop will let you move beyond basic ChatGPT conversations and actually leverage AI as a serious research tool.

Certificates will be provided after completion of the workshop.
