Hi everyone

Instats is pleased to present four exclusive livestreaming seminars on
integrating AI into your research, demystifying the fundamentals of AI and
large language models with a deep dive into the theory and practice of
their use for social and political research. They offer a cutting-edge
exploration of how AI in general and generative AI specifically can
revolutionize your research, empowering you with the knowledge and tools
you need to advance your research agenda in the ever-evolving landscape of
AI technology.

A Gentle Introduction to Artificial Intelligence
<https://instats.org/seminar/a-gentle-introduction-to-artificial-inte2> by
computer science professor Ricardo Vilalta, running Jan 25 - 26, offers a
comprehensive overview of AI with hands-on applications and an overview of
AI's relevance in academic research -- including discussions of ethical
considerations and future trends in AI.

Using Generative AI for Qualitative Research
<https://instats.org/seminar/harnessing-generative-ai-for-qualitative2> by
professor Christina Silver, running Feb 1 - 2, is a comprehensive workshop
that will equip researchers with the skills to utilize AI appropriately in
qualitative analyses, covering a range of topics from understanding AI
software tools to ethical considerations as well as troubleshooting typical
roadblocks to integrating AI into your research.

Large Language Models: AI Foundations and Applications in Python
<https://instats.org/seminar/large-language-models-ai-foundations-an2> by
former CERN physicist and senior data scientist Dr. Jayanti Prasad, running
Feb 5 - 9, provides a comprehensive understanding of large language models,
their AI foundations, and applications in Python including hands-on coding
sessions, case studies, and discussions on the future of large language
models in academic research.

Using ChatGPT for Advanced Data Analysis 2.0
<https://instats.org/seminar/using-chatgpt-for-advanced-data-analysis4>, by
former CERN physicist and economist professor Peter Gruber, running Feb 21
- 23, explores the ChatGPT's specialized but little understood Advanced
Data Analysis functionality, allowing users to perform all analysis steps
-- from data import, descriptive statistics and regression modelling to
table and figure generation and finally verbal interpretation -- offering a
totally new and more intuitive way of doing statistics that will allow you
to focus on your research rather than programming formalities or statistics
software.

With the tools these workshops are offering you'll be able to seamlessly
incorporate AI into your research. Please tell your friends and colleagues,
and we hope to see you there! Also, if you or your research group would
like to offer a workshop through Instats, please feel free to get in touch.


Best wishes
