Join the AI Tinkery to use, evaluate, and shape a new AI-thing…

Major providers like OpenAI (ChatGPT) and Anthropic (Claude) have recently rolled out features aimed at making their interfaces more learning-centric. Think things like Claude’s “Learning Mode” or ChatGPT’s “Study Mode.” The Tinkery is hosting a one-time virtual working group (on Zoom) to explore these tools together. The goal of this session is to better use, evaluate, and shape if/how they might be surfaced or experimented with in Tinkery learning spaces. We’ll consider their affordances and risks, and open space for speculative alternatives.

Login credentials will be provided as needed.
