From smart ovens to self-braking cars to chatty robots, AI is quietly baking, breaking, and pontificating its way into daily life. In this fun, hands-on session for the young at heart, we'll explore how artificial intelligence can make life easier, safer, and a little more interesting one recipe, one road trip, and one conversation at a time.

Dr. Anthony Betrus has been teaching at SUNY Potsdam since 1997, and in 2023 he was awarded the SUNY Chancellor's Award for Teaching Excellence. He has taught a number of technology-related courses for seniors, most recently on Virtual Reality. He is on the SUNY AI Task Force for integrating AI tutors into online learning and is currently teaching a professional development course for area teachers on integrating AI into their classrooms.
