The University of Alabama First-Year Writing program has invited John Warner (Inside Higher Ed, The Atlantic, Why They Can’t Write, and others) to give a presentation and workshop on the pedagogical implications of ChatGPT. ChatGPT has been very much in the news recently; it’s an artificial intelligence chatbot that can write just about anything on demand.

John will give a large lecture from 5:30-7 pm on Monday, March 6, and a smaller (catered) lunchtime workshop for GTAs on Tuesday, March 7.

Both events are free of charge. If you are available, please join us! It would be great to see you.
