Class Description
Join this “Tuesday Talks” group to learn from a Senior Planet participant! This group meets every Tuesday.
This week’s topic: Being Creative with AI Chatbots – Part 2
There are many things chatbots like ChatGPT can do beyond answering questions. You can ask them to create stories, poems, jokes, and much more. And you can engage in a conversation with the chatbot to repeatedly improve what you are co-creating. Most chatbots can also generate images you can create in the same way — perhaps to illustrate your stories and poems.
You can also ask for text-based adventures and all sorts of discussions including conversations between historical and fictional figures and participation in panel discussions and debates. Come learn how you can work with AI to bring your ideas to life. No technical expertise needed.
This is part two of a two part series on creative ways to use chatbots. Don’t worry if you missed the first one, you’re still welcome to join the discussion!

Ken Kahn has been interested in AI, programming languages, and education for 50 years. His 1977 paper “Three Interactions between AI and Education” may be among the first publications on the topic. He received his doctorate from the MIT AI Lab in 1979 where he worked with Seymour Papert, Marvin Minsky, and Cynthia Solomon. His doctoral thesis Creation of Computer Animation from Story Descriptions foresaw generative AI. He designed and implemented ToonTalk, a programming language for children that looks and feels like a video game. He has developed a large collection of AI programming resources in Snap! He recently retired from the University of Oxford as a Senior Researcher. He recently published The Learner’s Apprentice: AI and the Amplification of Human Creativity, a book about how students can use chatbots to create apps, adventures, illustrated stories, and more.
