At CSRAI, we’re on a mission to investigate issues related to generative AI through a series of exciting hackathons. With our next challenge, we’re turning our attention to understanding how large language models can impact higher education with the Cheat-a-thon!

The Cheat-a-thon challenges university faculty to create questions that are difficult for generative AI to answer. It also challenges students to use generative AI to answer them. Visit the Cheat-a-thon website to see how you can take on the challenge and compete for $10,000 in cash prizes!

Diagnose-a-thon aims to uncover the power and potential dangers of using generative AI for medical inquiries. During the virtual event, participants will compete for prizes ranging from $250 to $750 by identifying large language model prompts that produce AI-generated diagnoses that are either accurate or misleading and harmful.

Penn State’s Consortium on Moral Decision-Making, in partnership with the Center for Socially Responsible AI and the University Libraries, is hosting a hybrid conference on Empathy, Morality, & AI. Attendees can participate in person or via Zoom. 

Sponsored by the Penn State Center for Socially Responsible AI (CSRAI), the inaugural Fake-a-thon challenges participants to generate fake news stories and better understand the impact of generative AI. The Fake-a-thon will be held April 1-5 and consists of two distinct stages: Fake News Submissions and Fake News Detection.
