Tailoring U-M Maizey: Your Personalized Digital Assistant

TeachTech Workshop

noon–1:30 p.m.

New Workshop!

Want a customized assistant for your data? Elevate your Maizey skills as we delve into the craft of ‘system prompting’ within the U-M Maizey interface. System prompts allow users to personalize how their Maizey will interact with end users, giving a Maizey project a custom persona. Crafting a system prompt allows users to curate their data, which is like having a personalized librarian or assistant. This workshop will also explore how to customize the temperature in Maizey, which helps project owners refine the scope of their Maizey results.
