The artificial intelligence program ChatGPT has made headlines for its ability to create prose (and headlines), but how does it work? How are journalists using it? And what are the potential problems and ethical pitfalls?
In this webinar, Alex Mahadevan, director of the Poynter Institute’s MediaWise digital media literacy program, will take ChatGPT for a spin, discuss what he’s learned about the new technology and answer your questions.
Alex Mahadevan is the director of MediaWise at the Poynter Institute.
