FSUs Faculty Innovator Coffee Chats facilitate cross-discipline academic innovation across campus [Video]

Florida State University is helping faculty members learn how to best navigate academic innovation and the pertinent topic of artificial intelligence (AI) with a new program hosted by FSU’s Innovation Hub.

Sponsored by the Office of the Provost, Faculty Innovator Coffee Chats are offered every other Wednesday and provide an opportunity for faculty and staff from across campus to share insights and discuss opportunities surrounding academic innovation.

“I think AI is the next great technology challenge for universities, and we need to utilize it as a tool,” said Jim Clark, provost and executive vice president for Academic Affairs. “It’s crucial to harness the collective wisdom of our faculty to explore its potential. Testing AI and building a community of expertise at Florida State University is essential, rather than imposing it from the top down.”
