The technology is reportedly used to create things like art, music, and videos, \u201copening opportunities and pushing the boundaries of what computers can do,\u201d according to the press release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The university said the class will mainly be an open-forum discussion about generative AI but will incorporate discussions on large language models and prompt engineering. Additionally, participants will have the opportunity for hands-on exercises to provide them with \u201cthe skills and knowledge necessary to kickstart generative creations,\u201d according to the press release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The class will reportedly offer opportunities for participants to discover how this technology can be harnessed to learn and create in disciplines ranging from art and humanities to science, technology, and engineering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cGenerative AI isn\u2019t going anywhere, and it will become a part of our lives moving forward,\u201d Young said. \u201cNow is the time for everyone to learn and experiment with prompt engineering.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Utah Tech University&nbsp;will be offering free, weekly community courses on generative artificial intelligence starting on Aug. 30, according to a press release.
