Jules White appointed to Senior Advisor to the Chancellor for Generative AI in Education and Enterprise Solutions

Jules White, a distinguished computer scientist and expert on large language models and prompt engineering, has been named senior advisor to Chancellor Daniel Diermeier for generative AI in education and enterprise solutions. White’s appointment, which became effective Nov. 1, will build on Vanderbilt’s growing reputation as a world leader in innovation within the generative AI field.

“One reason Vanderbilt is uniquely positioned to lead in this space is because of our distinct culture of radical collaboration,” Diermeier said. “We already have interdisciplinary collaborations using generative AI in place across every school, including law, nursing, medicine, humanities, music, business, education and engineering. These efforts epitomize our mission to solve real-world challenges by investing in pathbreaking research, discovery and creative expression.”
