On this West Virginia Morning, artificial intelligence, or AI, is a hot topic right now. It seems everyone is using it – even if they sometimes don’t realize they are. Recently, News Director Eric Douglas saw a presentation as part of the Higher Education Policy Commission’s STAR lecture series with Professor Ali Al-Sinayyid. He’s an assistant professor and director of the West Virginia State University Cybersecurity Innovation Center.  

In this first part of our conversation with Al-Sinayyid, we learn a little about the history of AI and its evolution. Next week, we’ll have more of this conversation covering tips on how to use AI more effectively. 

Also, a student club at WVU Tech has garnered national recognition.

And, Operation Lifesaver’s annual Rail Safe Week wrapped up over the weekend with a series of events to promote safety at railroads. In West Virginia, organizers hosted a rail safety awareness event at the Harpers Ferry Train Station.
