help participants correctly understand the fundamental concepts of artificial intelligence, position AI appropriately in daily life and professional environments, and particularly comprehend why Generative AI has recently gained significant prominence.<br>By the end of the training, participants are expected to evaluate AI not merely as a popular technology trend, but as a supportive layer that can provide speed, efficiency, summarization, content generation, analytical support, and idea development for specific tasks.<br>The program also aims to provide participants with:<br>\u2022 the ability to distinguish between the strengths and limitations of AI,<br>\u2022 awareness of the risks of inaccurate yet convincing outputs,<br>\u2022 an understanding of the importance of verification and human oversight,<br>\u2022 and foundational awareness regarding data privacy and secure AI usage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p
