New artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) advances are accelerating at a rapid pace and impacting every facet of local government and schools - creating a mix of excitement, trepidation, questions, and confusion. Join your fellow RCLLG members for a three-part learning series presented by one of the nation's premier thought leaders in local government technology. Dr. Alan Shark of Fusion Learning Partners' Public Technology Institute and author of Artificial Intelligence — A Primer for State and Local Governments will help us make sense of what is going on right now with AI and GenAI.
The program will be split into a three-part series, comprising of:
PART ONE: Friday, September 13, 8:00 - 9:00 AM, CT
PART TWO: Friday, October 11, 8:00 - 9:00 AM, CT
PART THREE: Friday, November 8, 8:00 - 9:00 AM, CT
