Antonio Cisternino, our professor and president of the Information System at the University of Pisa, is the only Italian among the 300 professors chosen by OpenAI Academy, a free educational platform launched by OpenAI to facilitate the adoption of artificial intelligence in various sectors.
OpenAI has just published a video in which Cisternino talks about how he successfully used ChatGPT in the ICT Infrastructure course of the Master’s Degree in Computer Science.
The excellent feedback prompted the lecturer, together with Professor Andrea Corradini, to innovatively design the new edition of the Advanced Programming course, also for the Master’s Degree in Computer Science, focusing on Artificial Intelligence.
The video presents the fundamental ideas behind this new teaching approach, which is not limited to introducing a new tool, but demonstrates the willingness and ability to test the technologies that are changing the world.
Technological innovations are often met with scepticism. In this case, a constructive and informed approach was preferred, which is particularly important in programming, where AI is set to profoundly transform the future landscape.
