Staying Safe While Online

Noah Rosenstein discussed Staying Safe While Online.  Regardless if you are a PC, Mac, Android, or iPhone user, his presentation was of equal interest.  His presentation was a shortened and updated version of his recent 2-hour class on the same topic and will focus on avoiding scams you receive as a phone call, an email, or a text -- what to look for.  At the end of the day, it's all up to you.  There is no silver bullet application that alone can prevent being scammed.

 AI for Everday Life

In 1994, there was a song called Love is All Around.  In 2025, it could be re-written that AI is all around.  But what is AI and what can it do for you?  Ron Snyder spoke about "AI for Everyday Life."  He talked about the history and plans forward for AI and how it can be used in your life -- e.g. setting up a weekly menu and recipes, summarize a document, etc.  The recording and slides are available below.
