Academia & AI: A Student-Faculty Dialogue

Join our student-moderated faculty panel for an interactive discussion about generative artificial intelligence at the University of Pittsburgh, with questions provided by YOU! We welcome input from all in the Pitt community, especially Pitt students.

Are you interested in what it means for genAI to be a part of Pitt research and scholarship? Do you wonder how we should approach how we teach and learn in light of these increasingly advanced tools?

Let's talk about where we are, where we're going, and where we'd like to go re: genAI at Pitt.

GeoAI in Practice: Applying and Refining AI Models in GIS

This workshop, organized and run by two ESRI representatives: Brian Baldwin, Lead Solution Engineer, and Ridge Waddell, Account Manager, will tackle some modern aspects of geospatial mapping and analysis.

Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming spatial analysis. This portion will explore how GeoAI workflows operate within ArcGIS Pro. Participants will get exposure to ArcGIS Pro Deep Learning tools and the Living Atlas, learn how to refine and retrain Deep Learning models using their own datasets, and gain an understanding of how GeoAI enhances efficiency, scalability, and analytical depth across multiple fields.

Limited to Pitt and CMU affiliates.
