This MNARA seminar brings t ogether three Sydney-based practitioner perspectives on putting AI to work across the academic lifecycle from doing the research itself\, to buildin g real LLM-powered systems for the field\, to navigating the modern job ma rket. The session offers three complementary lenses on AI in academic life . The first lens looks at AI as a research instrument\, covering practical workflows for literature review\, writing\, analysis\, and ideation. The second lens turns inward to examine what we learn from building production LLM systems. The engineering\, ethical\, and methodological realities of deploying chatbots\, RAG pipelines\, and AI agents in real-world studies. The third lens looks outward to careers\, presenting an AI-powered playboo k for both academic positions and academia-to-industry transitions\, ancho red by a live demonstration of an end-to-end pipeline built on free and lo w-cost tools.Designed for researchers across disciplines and career stages \, the seminar blends conceptual frameworks with live demonstrations. Atte ndees will leave with concrete techniques and workflows they can apply to their research\, their next system\, and their next role the same week. Sp eakers:Convenor: Dr Omar Mubin.
