Exploring Artificial Intelligence (AI) and ChatGPT Safely resources

These resources are from our first Kai & Kōrero: Learning over lunch session for 2024. 

On Tuesday 13 February Eli Kliejunas and Dr Sarah Appleton from Synergia introduced us to ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and other AI tools.

Most of us have heard about ChatGPT and AI technologies and either been excited, scared, or skeptical. Whatever your position, we all know that understanding these technologies and the potential value they can bring to the social service sector is important. 

Sarah and Eli shared how to interact with them safely and effectively, the most common and helpful use cases for your mahi, like summarising text, explaining concepts, and drafting content.

Whether you're a beginner, technologically challenged or already using these tools, these resources will enhance your confidence and engage you in some of the interesting questions in this space.

Sarah and Eli welcome your questions, if you would like to reach out to them their contacts are sarah.appleton@synergia.co.nz and eli.kliejunas@synergia.co.nz
