ChatGPT and the Humanities
This course explores the intersection of generative artificial intelligence (AI) and the humanities, with a particular focus on digital history. Through a combination of lectures, readings, and hands-on exercises, students will learn how to use natural language processing tools like ChatGPT and Midjourney to analyze and generate content, as well as explore the various ways that generative AI can be applied to the humanities more broadly. Topics covered in the course include the history of AI and its impact on the humanities, applications of generative AI including in research and writing, and the ethical considerations surrounding the use of AI in humanities research and education. By the end of the course, students will have gained a deep understanding of the potential implications of generative AI on the humanities and be equipped with the tools and knowledge to use these technologies in their own research, work, and creative endeavours.
