He highlighted the benefits of having access to a 24/7 tutor trained on the course content, helping students navigate through complex topics. Joseph also addressed the emerging application of AI in the education sector, specifically mentioning Khan Academy's Con Migo model, which guides students through learning processes rather than providing direct answers. He warned of the potential misuse of such technologies and emphasized the importance of teacher training and curriculum development to effectively integrate these tools into the classroom.

   

AI Productivity Booster: Chat GPT

Joseph shared his positive experience of working with Chat Gpt, highlighting its ability to facilitate projects faster and more smoothly due to its non-judgmental nature. He referenced a recent study that showed a 40% increase in productivity when using AI. Joseph also emphasized that this tool can benefit individuals of different skill levels, but there is a learning curve to understand how best to prompt it. Richard noted that this could help bring everyone up to a workable level, which aligns with the concept of education equity. The group then moved on to a demonstration of the tool's capabilities.

   

Radio Frequencies in Broadcasting Discussed

Joseph and Gerry discussed the technical aspects of radio frequencies in the context of outside broadcasting. Joseph demonstrated a tool that explained the concept of radio frequencies, how they are generated, transmitted, and received, and provided a practical example. The tool also had a feature that saved the conversation, allowing them to return to it later. Additionally, Joseph introduced the idea of a 'Town Square' feature, which allows multiple experts to debate a subject before reaching a conclusion.

   

AI Claims Assessment: Security Concerns Addressed

Romeo discussed his interest in utilizing AI to reduce the time and man-hours needed to assess complex contractual claims. Joseph confirmed that AI could potentially assist with this, and explained that vector databases and large language models could be used to streamline the process. However, Joseph also warned about the costs associated with setting up and maintaining such a system. Richard raised a question from Gerry O'leary about the security of data uploaded to these systems.
