AI and Creative Coding
This course is aimed for beginning coding and therefore you should not be using ChatGPT in this class to complete assignments. This is not to say don’t use responsible AI or machine learning for creative technology projects. Think of AI like a calculator. When you first learn math you learn 2 + 2 = 4, you don’t learn to enter numbers into a calculator. That comes later when you have an understanding of the underlying concepts.
