In this sprint, we will give you some suggestions as to some of the brilliant ways that you can use AI tools throughout your university journey. We will also include some guidance as well as some case studies that demonstrate the risks of using AI indiscriminately. Our general rule is:
Use AI to improve, not do.
Summarise Information
Have you ever felt a bit intimidated by the size of your reading list? Or perhaps just a bit unsure if a particular text is going to be helpful? This is where AI tools can help.

Design presentations
Countless tools available online promise to create your presentation for you using AI. However, be aware that you may have to pay for some of these.
The good news is that many different software applications you may already be familiar with are now integrating with AI tools too – like Microsoft PowerPoint!
