Description
How many conference championships has UCF won? If you ask Google, it’s 6, but if you ask ChatGPT, its answer varies, from 6 to 2. Despite warnings about AI’s potential for misinformation, many people treat AI as a fancy search engine. Accordingly, we are living in a moment where our reality is determined by where we search. How can we use it better? Through an interactive game, participants will practice skills for better search experiences. Participants will walk away more knowledgeable about the technical differences between search engines and AI and have materials for teaching online research with AI.
