AI can write your college essay, but it won’t sound like you
Students who plan to use ChatGPT to write their college admissions essays should think twice: Artificial intelligence tools write highly generic personal narratives, even when prompted to write from the perspective of someone with a certain race or gender.
Balancing the promise of health AI with its carbon costs
The health care industry is increasingly relying on AI – in responding to patient queries, for example – and a new Cornell study shows how decision-makers can use real-world data to build sustainability into new systems.
Holocaust testimony is AI litmus test, and it fails
A Cornell historian argues in a new paper that human historians are vital to capture the emotional and moral complexity behind world events.
