There was several topics stood out to me, AI fiction, AI imaginaries, and the ways the class approaches data and technology from a human-centered perspective. I\u2019m particularly interested in how AI fiction and AI imaginaries help us explore ethical questions about technology, such as bias, power, creativity, and what it means to be human in an increasingly automated world. I\u2019m also intrested in learning about creative approaches to data and the idea of humanizing data through visualization and storytelling rather than treating it as something purely technical or abstract. Topics like visualizing textual data and digitization technologies appeal to me because they show how humanities sources can be transformed and reinterpreted using digital tools. Civic technology is another area I want to explore further, especially how digital projects can address real community needs and social issues. But in general, I\u2019m excited to learn how technology, storytelling, and ethics intersect throughout this course and to apply these ideas in future projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
