HOSTED BY the Penn State Nittany AI Alliance, this is the last session in a four-part series designed to introduce people to artificial intelligence—what it is, what it isn’t, and why it matters in everyday life. Created for thoughtful citizens rather than coders, the conversation uses clear, jargon-free language and real-world examples to explore how AI is already shaping work, creativity, small businesses, and communities. SESSION FOUR: Education, Local Impact, and the Road Ahead. A forward-looking wrap-up focused on Happy Valley, not Silicon Valley. WHO SHOULD COME: Curious locals, small business owners, students and educators, artists and creatives, and anyone wondering what AI actually means for their life and work.
