The Humanities and AI Prompting – What’s the Connection?? (Spring 2026)

In this webinar, we will explore “narrative prompting” as executable computer code. Because the basic concept of “prompt engineering” can only take us so far in understanding the human role in AI prompting, we can look to the Humanities to teach us the logic of language and its possible use as an ethical and effective AI guide. We will review some ideas brought forth by Bryan and Ceredwyn Alexander of Bryan Alexander Consulting LLC, who put forth the question, “Can the Humanities Save Us from AI?” Let’s discuss together!
