Under the patronage of the President of the University of Technology, Professor Dr. Ahmed Mohammed Hassan Al-Ghabban, and supervised by the Head of the Department of Computer Science, Professor Dr. Alaa Kadhim Farhan, in collaboration with the Department of Mechanical Engineering and as part of the activities for the second semester, the Department of Computer Science organized a workshop titled "Advantages and Risks of Artificial Intelligence in Developing Digital Content". The workshop was conducted by Assistant Professor Dr. Ahmed Adnan Abduljabbar from the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Assistant Professor Dr. Khalil Ibrahim Ghithwan from the Department of Computer Science on Sunday, 2024/3/3, in the discussion hall of the Computer Science Department annex building, with the attendance of faculty, staff, and students from the department and the university. The workshop began by clarifying the difference between the concepts of artificial intelligence and industrial intelligence; the former being a field of computer science dedicated to solving cognitive problems related to human intelligence such as learning, creativity, and image recognition, whereas the latter is specialized in the field of industry. The workshop highlighted that artificial intelligence is essential to keep up with the rapid developments in the world, as knowledge is boundless and intersects with all sciences, especially engineering in a world dominated by technological obsession. Among the advantages of artificial intelligence is the possibility of providing images with articles, citing sources, and making suggestions regarding research publication. There are free applications or paid applications that can be useful for article writing, and it is recommended not to rely on a single application but on various applications. Artificial intelligence can also be beneficial in the field of digital content development, with free versions offering all choices, sources, and images, identifying grammatical errors, and the possibility of selecting different information and images from several applications at once. In conclusion, the Head of the Department, Professor Dr. Alaa Kadhim Farhan, awarded two certificates of appreciation to the lecturers in recognition of their efforts in delivering this valuable lecture.
