Ethical Use of Agentic and Generative AI in Engineering
This online engineering CPD video presentation presents licensed engineers with a comprehensive introduction to agentic and generative artificial intelligence (AI), focusing on the ethical use and responsible integration of AI across major engineering disciplines.
This course begins by introducing the fundamentals of agentic and generative AI, including their definitions, key differences, capabilities, and applications in engineering practice. It then explores common AI use cases across civil, mechanical, electrical, chemical, software, environmental, and other engineering disciplines, with real-world examples used to illustrate potential ethical considerations and professional responsibilities.
The presentation also examines the application of fundamental engineering Codes of Ethics to AI-assisted engineering work, with emphasis on the engineer’s responsibility to protect public health, safety, and welfare. Participants will learn best practices for maintaining professional accountability, exercising appropriate professional judgment, and remaining in responsible charge when using AI tools in engineering practice.
This 2 CPD online engineering PDH video presentation is intended for licensed engineers and other engineering professionals interested in understanding agentic and generative AI, their applications in engineering, and the ethical responsibilities associated with their use.
