in Higher Education While artificial intelligence (AI) has existed in some form since the 1930s, the pace ofadvancements has accelerated significantly in the last decade. Modern AI is rooted in AlanTuring’s theory of computation, which defined the “Turing machine” as a set of logical rules thatcould, generally, be used to compute solutions to nearly any problem [1]. The set of logical rulesknown as the Turing machine later developed into the concept of neural networks, the backboneof most AI technologies today. Many major AI tools today are pre-trained to use a neuralnetwork to decipher a specified dataset; this automated process is called machine learning. Thispaper will centers on application of a subset of machine learning AI

These gaps are often filled in by students learning ad hoc, by overworkedfaculty over numerous mentoring sessions, or often by the engineering research librarians inworkshops and consultations.

This involved careful consideration of each line in our scripts in order tobe clear and concise. Once the scripts were drafted and reviewed, we practiced and timed them tomake sure they fit in our time limits and made additional cuts when necessary. Once the scriptswere finalized, we moved on to recording.
