★★★★★ Excellent overview. Immediately able to put into practice.
★★★★★ Great class, I learned so much! Would you mind sharing that DOS format for the guardrails so we don’t have to type it all out every time?
★★★★★ Very important information. Thank you for this information.
★★★★★ Can I get the slides from the class?
★★★★☆ Very good explanation of the things covered. Could have had a couple more examples.
★★★★★ Love the detail of your handout and how you defined guardrails and prompts.
I appreciated that you spoke about what kids are seeing.
Wondering if you could do a similar class on AI and scams.
★★★★★ You can do an extension/ crash course to this class and go in depth on how exactly to make guardrails. Cause in the class you copied and pasted what you already typed but how’d you get that and where’d you start
★★★★★ I liked the demonstration sections. It showed me how to set up guard rails, and being in my early 20s and using AI a lot already, I didn’t even know you could do that. This was a very informative class, and I hope that you guys make this available to people online for anyone to view it.
★★★★☆ Learned a lot! I was confused with lecture vs handout. May have just been me not quite following closely
★★★★★ Hello Dennis, if possible to get slide deck presented.
Stu
★★★★★ This is a great intro to alleviate fears of AI and how to proceed using Ai with prudence
★★★★★ May I have a copy of your power point?

★★★★★ Very simple advice
Be a user not a consumer
★★★★★ Can you teach us how to format guardrail in computer language?
★★★★★ Thank you so much for this information! Slow down a little as you’re speaking to allow for processing. This is a lot of information for me, but i am a not a super techy person either. Perhaps give a copy of your powerpoint, which I would like a copy of to review this again.
★★★★☆ Thank you for the information!
★★★★★ Wasn’t sure what to expect but the session was extremely helpful in my life as a parent, as an office mgr and just in general as AI is becoming so widely used. A great class for believers and nonbelievers! Thank you for the info!!!
The handout didn’t really flow with the presentation …
Good info and we’re so grateful that Pastor Ed is educating the church. Thank you for being the willing. I hope we were a good audience.
★★★★★ Dennis this was very eye opening, I use ChatGPT and will do so with more caution and definitely upgraded my prompts today! Thank you for your obedience!
★★★★★ I have never pursued AI. You have now allowed me to cross a threshold to pursue it as a user if I would like to. I now see advantages to use it. I can now research next steps.
★★★★☆ – introduce yourself better… and by should we trust your expertise.
– I like to take notes but it was hard to take all the notes. Referencing your packet, “you can find these in your packet”
– showing us your gaurdrails was the best part for me however showing it to me and telling us you have to do it in that format and not showing us how to do it that way makes me feel like that won’t be a helpful tip.
★★★★★ Is AI synonymous with algorithm?
★★★★★ The tiny font on the handouts made them a bit hard to read, and I got a little lost when they didn’t quite ‘seem’ to match your talk. Overall, though, it was really valuable information! I loved the second session and couldn’t wait to start using the examples you gave.
And even though you didn’t ask, I find this to be similar when you lead prayer nights as well. I love the prayer nights but the fonts are too small and I think having just a few key points would allow us to go deeper on each one instead of trying to hurry through so many. Less would be more.
Thank you for serving at Calvary—I am very encouraged by what you do!
★★★★★ I learned more in an hour and half then I have learned in 6 months at work. Thank you Dennis
★★★★★ I was amazed by the breadth of information and knowledge that Dennis the instructor gave. This was truly a game changing course to be a part of. I am much more equipped to move forward with a better understanding of AI and what it entails. Most of all, I loved processing these things through a Biblical worldview. The scriptures used came alive when applying them to the day and age we are living in. Well done to the Bible Morning team!
★★★★★ Dennis was great!
