On Wednesday September 17th, from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM in the Webb Room 407, the BIS-ITSA club hosted two presentations created by Mitch Peterson and Logan French to discuss the various themes regarding AI! Mitch began covering the AI used in his summer project, Eastern’s new AI chatbot. The chatbot was modeled around the popular chat tool, ChatGPT, but using many of Amazon’s AWS Bedrock platform tools, Mitch also presented his knowledge of prompt engineering he learned over his internship, explaining that the essentials to prompt engineering include giving a “role” and specifying a particular output format that is logical for the business needs. Additionally, he also briefly mentioned different types of AI and clarified that type of AI that Mitch employed was a mid-level language-based generative AI model.
As for Logan French, he explained the usefulness of learning AI for the current environment in the economy and recommended that we create projects in AI. Logan advocated that everyone could create a project for AI and encouraged that it would benefit all of us in our search for internships/jobs.
