Please briefly describe why this event fits into the A.S funding guidelines

This event fits the funding guidelines as it is an in-person, educational workshop open to all UC San Diego undergraduate students, providing free food while offering accessible, academically enriching content. The MiniGPT Workshop promotes learning around artificial intelligence and foundational language models—a topic that's not only relevant to many students across disciplines but also crucial in the tech field. In terms of technical rules, the event does not charge admission, complies with the $10 per undergraduate attendee funding limit, and all A.S.-funded items will only be distributed to UCSD undergraduates. As such, the event fully aligns with the requirements for Programming Funds.
