Generative artificial intelligence (AI)


KIT actively supports employees and students in exploring and using generative AI applications in their everyday work, teaching and learning. The AI toolbox gives all KIT employees access to a variety of local and external language models (LLMs). The toolbox can be used either conveniently via a web interface or via API, thus opening up flexible application options. In addition, Microsoft Copilot is another generative AI tool available, provided that the use of Microsoft cloud services has been approved.

Important information, notes on services and tools, legal and technical framework conditions as well as the current KIT guidelines for the responsible use of generative AI can be found on the information pages on the KIT intranet (KIT-Intern).

With the GenAI∂KIT project , we (ZML, SCC and DO) are creating a development space at KIT that specifically addresses the needs of all KIT employees and those interested in digital teaching and learning processes. The aim is to make innovative AI applications understandable, safe and practical to use and to find out together how these technologies can support us in everyday life and in the further development of the university world.

On our pages you will find practical ideas for the use of generative AI as well as insights into specialized prompting techniques. We support teachers and interested parties with information and guidance on how to effectively integrate generative AI technologies into their own practice.

Please note that applications and framework conditions relating to generative AI are constantly evolving. We endeavor to keep the information up to date, but are always happy to receive comments and additions.
