How AI can help you in your (science) communication - a quick guide
10:00 - 15:30 on 6 February 2025
Would you like to know more about science communication and how AI can help you with this? Would you like to get hands-on experience with tools such as Midjourney and ChatGPT?
This course combines traditional methods of science communication with modern AI technologies to convey complex scientific content efficiently and comprehensibly. Participants will learn how AI-supported tools such as large language models, chatbots, or image generators can adapt scientific topics to different target groups.
In addition to introducing technical, legal, and ethical issues, the course offers practical exercises in which participants can develop their projects and directly apply the skills they have learned. The aim is to provide participants with a toolkit to make their communication more effective and innovative and to utilize new formats and media. During the course, we will try out various tools, including ChatGPT and Midjourney.
Target group
This course is for Helmholtz Talent Managers who are interested in using AI to better communicate internally and externally.
