AI/Tech Talks at Thunderbird

Dear Thunderbird and ASU Community,

2025 has been a breakthrough year for AI at ASU, as we move from experimentation to “AI for all,” guided by Principled Innovation. Agentic AI systems now plan and execute complex workflows. “Vibe coding” platforms let anyone build multi-modal apps from a single prompt. Tools like Google’s AI Studio, Cursor’s Composer LLM, OpenAI’s Sora, and new creative suites are turning AI into a ubiquitous collaborator for teaching, research, and real-world problem solving.

If you want a clear view of what actually mattered in AI this year, you can dive straight into my 2025 review and tool breakdowns here:
