VIDEO #2
"what's something you helped make happen on campus?"
i helped a new AI browser find its campus crowd
i built a small creator network and worked with clubs & professors to bring demos where students already were
driven by peer demos in clubs, classes & dining halls
students taught students
the best moments sounded like: “wait, show me that again”
what i learned:
- meet students where they already are
- give them something real to try
- let them bring the next person in
that's the community i want to build with openai 🤝
let's make penn state build.
