Welcome to the first AI for People Workshop.
Our mission is to learn, pose questions and
take initiative on how Artificial Intelligent technology can
be used for the social good. As such, we want to share and
teach our knowledge with you. The entire workshop is free
and anyone is invited to take part. Please visit the website
(https://sites.google.com/view/ai-for-people-workshop)
to get all the necessary information.
The course is free for everyone, yet we ask you to register
in advance. As a non-profit organization all of our work and
effort is voluntary. If you like the workshop, we suggest a
donation of 15€ for the entire workshop (aiforpeople.org/supporters).
Attendance is limited through the virtual classroom and
entry is based on first-registered-first-served, therefore
we ask you to register as soon as possible.
This workshop has two basic blocks and four advanced blocks.
The basic blocks require little to no programming experience
and the advanced blocks are for those of you who want to
learn about more advanced techniques in Artificial
Intelligence. Guest speaker: Dr. Ibrahim Haddad, Vice President
