X in the Loop Webinar Series

Through perspectives from Carnegie Mellon University faculty and industry leaders, the rotating series examines how generative AI is reshaping data and prediction, AI literacy, immersive media and games, film and authorship and workforce development. No technical background is required. Each session is 60 minutes on Zoom, including time for audience questions. Topic: Emerging Skillsets and Mindsets for Next Generation to Thrive in an AI-Fueled World ​AI is rewriting what it means to be prepared. For the next generation, the question is no longer whether they will work alongside intelligent systems, but which human capacities they will need to keep in the loop — curiosity, judgment, creativity and the ability to work with others across difference. Drawing on a decade of work with governments, universities and employers on AI skilling at scale, this session asks how educators, employers and policymakers can help young people move from using AI to shaping it. Speaker: ​ Anshul Sonak — Principal Engineer, Global Director & Head of Digital Readiness, Intel Corporation This event is organized by the Department of Languages, Cultures & Applied Linguistics (LCAL) and sponsored by the InnoGen Fund and CETIC.
