AI Got Good: Now What?
Wednesday July 8, 2026 10:45am - 12:00pm EDT
Deans Hall 1
Feedback Survey
I used to think AI was mostly useless. Confident nonsense that sounded right and wasted time. Then I actually started using it to build something real — and it changed my mind. This session is about what I learned: how to give AI clear direction, how to constrain it so it stops making things up, and why your domain knowledge is still the thing that makes it actually work.
