Futures Initiative

The Futures Initiative aims to advance greater equity and innovation in higher education. Housed at the Graduate Center and reaching throughout the CUNY community, the Futures Initiative empowers the next generation of intellectual leaders with bold, public, and engaged teaching and learning. The Futures Initiative fosters greater understanding of the complexities of the higher education landscape by spearheading qualitative and quantitative research in areas such as academic labor practices and reward systems, open-access multimedia publishing, data visualization and interpretation, and institutional change. Through HASTAC@CUNY (a hub of the online network Humanities, Arts, Science and Technology Alliance and Collaboratory), the Futures Initiative extends its collaborative peer-to-peer practices across institutions, disciplines, national boundaries, and economic and social disparities, promoting reinvestment in higher education as a public good.

    Event details from course prof. Michelle McSweeney:
    Hello fellow CUNY Data Viz Enthusiasts!

    I’m reaching out with a very last minute invitation to the Final Review for Large Language Models and ChatGPT. The course explored the technical underpinnings and social implications of LLMs, and the final review reflects both.

    Join us on Monday, Dec 11 at 6:30 in 9206/9207 for the Final Review of Large Language Models and ChatGPT. Students will showcase their projects ranging from chatbot therapy to fake news detection to an LLM powered magic 8 ball. They explore the social and ethical implications of LLMs in the workplace, in relationships, and the classroom. With special guest appearances by a deep fake Jim Groom to explain how AI works and a Carl Sagan chat buddy to teach us about the stars. Hope to see you there!

    All best,
    Michelle
