TCORE 104 and TCOM 221 survey asks students for their opinion on AI both on and off campus By Blake Latta Artificial Intelligence (AI) is everywhere. Whether you are a fan of it or completely against it, the conversation around it is inescapable. Dr. Ellen Moore, a professor within the School of Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences (IAS) here at UW Tacoma, is aiming to educate students on AI. This quarter, Moore is teaching two classes about AI, TCORE 104 “AI Know What You Did Last Summer” and TCOM 221, “AI: Media, Culture, and Power.” The classes aren’t looking at how to use AI better but teach students how AI affects the world around us. Whether that be environmentally, socially or politically. “It teaches them how to approach AI, if they’re going to use it in the future, more critically and with more knowledge.” Moore said. Within both of these classes, Moore and her students created a survey to take a look at what UW Tacoma students think about AI.
