Curious about the newest developments in artificial intelligence?

Join us for Chat with the AI Chair, a monthly drop-in conversation designed for professionals who want to stay ahead of emerging AI trends.

This month’s discussion will explore OpenClaw, a fast-emerging open-source framework for autonomous AI agents. 

Unlike traditional chatbots that simply answer questions, OpenClaw runs locally on your computer or server and can take action on your behalf—from managing files to browsing the web and interacting with platforms like WhatsApp, Discord, and email. The technology represents a growing shift toward self-hosted AI assistants that automate real tasks, raising exciting opportunities—and important questions—about security, control, and productivity.

Praveen Krishna, chair of the Artificial Intelligence Application Development certificate program, will lead the informal discussion about what this technology means for developers, professionals, and organizations adopting AI tools.

Topics

  • What OpenClaw is and why it’s gaining attention
  • How autonomous AI agents differ from traditional AI chat tools
  • Real-world use cases and practical applications
  • Risks, limitations, and ethical considerations
  • What skills professionals need to build or work with AI agents

This is a casual, interactive session—bring your questions, share your experience, and hear directly from an AI educator working at the forefront of applied AI training.
You’ll get an insider’s look at the technologies shaping the next generation of AI—and what you need to know to stay ahead.
