New on HEUG the Mic, and it lands right in this group's wheelhouse.
@Jasmine Solomon, Senior Associate Director of Systems Operations at NYU, founder of the Slate AI User Group, and a member of this very community, sat down with @Alexandra Green to talk through how she separates the AI that is worth adopting from the AI that just sounds impressive.
A few things she gets into that are worth your time:
- The filter she runs before a new AI feature ever reaches her team
- Why she has moved away from generalist tools toward ones built for a specific job
- The eager intern mindset for getting past AI that just agrees with you
- A fresh chat trick that gets AI to pick apart its own output
Season 5, Episode 6: Snake Oil or Substance: Jasmine Solomon on Spotting AI Hype in Higher Ed
Jasmine's mental model is to treat AI like an eager intern: quick and willing, but not something you turn loose without a second look. So we have to ask: what is a task you happily hand to your AI intern, and what would you never let it do unsupervised? Drop it below. Jasmine is right here in the network and may weigh in on yours.
