Topic 2: The Future of Programming - The shift of programming from machine code to compiled languages like C++, and now towards creating apps without code using AI. - The future potential of not requiring understanding code, just the ability to think of what to create using AI. - The use of Chat GBT with university/college learning to build useful products faster. Topic 3: AI Beyond Education - Potential future uses of AI in education, including using it to check for cheating, creating curriculums, and introducing new classes. - Uses of AI in biotechnology with prosthetic limbs to sense and respond to neural messages from the body. - Changes to the job application process through AI and automation. Topic 4: AI Literacy - The value of building a network and making connections with other students and alumni. - The role and importance of AI ethics in the future. Topic 5: Practical Advice on AI - Use of AI language models for creating schedules and studying technical subjects like physics. - Ideas on how chat GPT can help students in their lives without app development knowledge. Topic 6: Independent Use of AI - Using AI to tackle repetitive tasks while working on harder things. - Warning against relying too much on AI as it may prevent learning and developing valuable skills. Topic 7: Chat with You and App Development - The story of how the speaker and their friends developed an app to help college students find events on campus. - Chat with You's contribution towards learning to develop the app using different development platforms.
