Artificial Intelligence has become a hot topic in recent years, as companies and start-ups have raced to develop “artificial intelligence” products that can “think like a human.” AI is the study of enabling machines to perform tasks that require human intelligence. It encompasses a wide range of technologies and thinking, from the algorithms determining how a computer matches search terms and documents to identifying images and video clips, to virtual assistants that can answer questions, shop for you, or even drive you to the nearest coffee shop.

Like any new field, AI is also fraught with misunderstandings and misconceptions about what it is and how it works. This workshop is your guide to AI and what it can do for you.
