AI Fluency Innovation Microfunds | Office of Academic Affairs AI Fluency Innovation Microfunds Artificial intelligence is evolving quickly, creating a need and opportunity for us to look at how we create knowledge, teach, learn, express creativity, and consider how we advance our pursuit of areas that mean the most to us as humans.
AI Fluency at Ohio State was developed with the mission for every student to be fluent in the application of AI to their field of study. Across Ohio State, faculty, staff, and students are already investigating AI technologies from many perspectives and putting it to use in thoughtful and innovative ways.
The AI Fluency Innovation microfunds are intended to accelerate that breadth of exploration, help promising work develop, and create more opportunities for people across the university to learn from one another. The program provides seed funding to Ohio State faculty, staff, graduate and undergraduate student employees to advance responsible, impactful, and critical engagement with AI. Funding is not limited to undergraduate education.
The program is intended to help promising work connect people across disciplines, surface new perspectives, and share knowledge across the university.
