Artificial Intelligence (AI) Workshops

Technology has now advanced to the point where students are very clear that they need to learn more about Artificial Intelligence (AI).

We developed an AI Workshop where students are treated to a journey through the history of AI, what it means in terms of basic use, ethics, more complex use, sustainability & the environment, and AI’s place in developing creative, video, website and smartphone applications.

In addition to the historical background, students participate in interactive sessions, often with Employers, looking at AI in the context of popular culture, use in Art & Creative industries, chatbots & virtual assistants, and Ethics in AI. We look at the impact of bias (e.g. showing how a preponderance of male coders results in biased outcomes, such as displaying male-oriented heart attack symptoms to a female user), and industry trends.

The AI Workshop has also been delivered to corporate stakeholders, whose ‘business’ members of staff have found it particularly useful.
