Opći podaci o kursu
This MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) focuses on the social impact of information technologies on society. The course content was generated by AI applications. This applies to the images as well as the texts and videos that you will find in the course. We also had the self-assessments and badges generated by an AI application.
With this course, we would like to use a practical example to show what AI systems are currently capable of (as of April 2023), but also where there are still difficulties. You can get an impression for yourself, discover errors or be amazed at how good the applications already are. The course is designed to invite you to critically question AI-generated content and to reflect on the areas in which it can be used in a sensible or supportive way and where it cannot.
Additionally, in each lesson we document exactly how the content was generated, the software and the prompts used. Only in the very first lesson we give a man-made ;) introduction to the topic and a reflection.
