Lunch & Learn - Everyday Use and Practical AI

Join UIS faculty members Dr. Hei Chi Chan and Dr. Neetu Singh for a “hands-on” session exploring practical, real-world applications and usage of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in everyday life. This session will showcase the practical tools and technologies that are already transforming how we work, learn, and interact. From smart assistants to personalized recommendations and productivity boosters, participants will get hands-on experience in the responsible use of AI. Participants are encouraged to bring their personal devices (cell phones, laptops, tablets) to practice and explore.

What was your overall UIS experience like?

I have an overall 10/10 experience at UIS. If UIS had an LLM/JD program I think that I'll still be enrolled there today. I loved the curriculum and the unique approach to studying and learning. I kick myself for not being involved in any clubs or activities. However, there's still time because I would love a second Masters!
