UCLA offers comp lit course developed by AI

UCLA is set to launch a comparative literature course in winter 2025 that will utilize AI-generated materials. The course will cover literature from the Middle Ages to the 17th century, with resources created by Kudu, an innovative textbook platform. This initiative marks a significant step as it will be the first humanities class at UCLA to incorporate AI-generated content.

Professor Zrinka Stahuljak collaborated with Kudu to develop the course materials, streamlining the creation process to just 20 hours of professor involvement. This approach aims to enhance student engagement by allowing TAs and professors to focus more on direct interactions with students. Additionally, students can interact with Kudu for questions, ensuring that responses are based solely on the provided course materials.

• UCLA's course will feature AI-generated textbooks and resources.

• Kudu streamlines course material creation for professors at UCLA.
