SUMMARY:AI/ML Workshop. Vibecoding: How ANYONE Can Turn Daily Routines into Scalable Systems
DESCRIPTION:At one time or another\, we’ve all used tools that might not be the right fit for a specific situation. For example\, managing projects in Excel when we need real-time collaboration\, drafting training programs in PowerPoint that would work better as interactive modules\, or maintaining grocery lists in the Notes app on iPhone that never organize themselves. We make do with tools that don’t quite fit because building custom software seems impossible. The answer is Vibecoding! \nThe best way to get started with Vibecoding is to recognize that your daily routines are app blueprints waiting to be optimized. This presentation will detail what vibecoding is\, how to apply a simple framework to the app development process\, and how the ‘vibecoding’ space has evolved over the past eight months. \nKeith Gutierrez from the MIS department will introduce vibecoding and its practical applications. \nFollowing his presentation\, we’ll have a group discussion on getting started with vibecoding for beginners and exploring how to integrate vibecoding into our curriculum. \nThis workshop is perfect for anyone curious about vibecoding\, especially if you’ve been interested but unsure where to begin. Whether you’re new to the concept or looking to deepen your understanding\, please stop by! \nYou are encouraged to come to LW420\, but the Zoom option is also available (https://temple.zoom.us/j/97714472127). \nYou can only earn points if you attend the event in person and stay for the full duration. You will also need to sign in and provide proof of attendance.

SUMMARY:The cybercrime link from those behind the door (incarcerated) to those in the free world
DESCRIPTION:The pervasive use of technology in our daily lives has undoubtedly brought about numerous benefits\, but it has also become a powerful tool for individuals with criminal intent\, transcending the boundaries between the incarcerated and the “free world.” Criminals\, whether behind bars or navigating the complexities of society\, leverage technology to exploit vulnerabilities and victimize others. This omnipresent threat necessitates a heightened level of awareness to effectively mitigate and respond to potential dangers. \nThe only solace in the face of these technological challenges lies in fostering awareness of the potential risks and developing robust strategies for responding to attacks. This awareness involves not only recognizing the evolving tactics employed by criminals but also understanding the vulnerabilities that technology introduces into our interconnected world. By staying informed\, individuals can better safeguard themselves against cyber threats\, identity theft\, and various other forms of technological exploitation. \nIn honor of Black History Month\, the CARE Lab\, Black Girls Hack\, and the Women in Cybersecurity (Temple Chapter) are co-hosting this virtual event with the amazing Dr. Tessa Cole. \nSpeaker: Dr. Tessa Cole \n \nBio: Dr. Cole earned a Ph.D. in criminology and criminal justice from Georgia State University. Her work has been published in peer-reviewed publications such as Victims & Offenders and International Criminal Justice Review\, with several forthcoming publications. She served a temporary assignment with the Department of Homeland Security\, Homeland Security Investigation (HSI)\, and as Director of Research for Street Grace\, a 501(c)(3) Organization that focused on the Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children. Specific to her area of research\, she conducted studies on internet-based platforms\, such as Telegram\, Discord\, Monster\, Indeed\, and Seeking Arrangements\, and analyzed the yield data from research studies to provide vital information to government organizations\, such as the Federal Reserve Bank. She has taught various criminology and criminal justice courses.\nCurrently\, she teaches and serves as a Deputy Sheriff in a major metropolitan agency in the southeast in an investigation unit focused on digital forensics and criminal enterprises. \nDr. Cole on LinkedIn  \n
