    10 mins 3.4 Bloom AI

    Bloom AI (a startup spun out ASB) have been aggresively marketing their "intelligent tutor" system to CSE lecturers to use in their courses. We need to formulate a response, outlining all the issues that are mitigating against us using it.

    5 mins 3.5 COMP3222/9222 Lab Equipment

    Oliver is proposing that move to new lab equipment, with benefits:
    • lifting the cap on enrolments
    • modernise the software
    • allow same software to be used across COMP3211,COMP3601, COMP4601
    Since the lab kits are expensive, Oliver is proposing that students might buy the kits from CSE, rather than us loaning kits that need to be chased up at the end of term.
