CofC Offers Applications of Artificial Intelligence Workshop - The College Today

Artificial intelligence (AI) has already transformed our lives, and it keeps altering different aspects of daily life. From driving autonomous vehicles to translating languages in real time, AI technologies can considerably improve the efficiency of every process in our diverse workplaces. That is why the Data Science Program at the College of Charleston is offering a four-day workshop for students to learn how AI can be integrated into different fields of science and technology.

Sponsored by the South Carolina Council on Competitiveness, the Applications of Artificial Intelligence workshop was designed to teach about artificial intelligence through instructional and hands-on training activities. Workshop components include AI in Music and Art, AI in Natural Language Processing, AI in Smart Cities and Autonomous Vehicles, AI in Environmental Informatics, AI in Education and AI at Home.

Led by high-profile speakers and instructors in academia and industry, the workshop will be held Aug. 2–5, 2022, from 1–5 p.m. (Tues.) and 9 a.m.– 5 p.m. (Wed.–Fri.), at the College of Charleston’s Harbor Walk location (360 Concord St.) and is open to students (including undergraduate and graduate students; as well as SPECTRA high school graduates), particularly those who were impacted by the pandemic. Any student who is interested in learning about artificial intelligence is welcome; a background in computer programming is not required.

The workshop is free; a $30 registration fee will be returned to attendees in the form of a gift card. Lunch and refreshments will be provided.
