What is AI?

Join us for a beginner-level introduction to the basics of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
You'll learn what AI is, how it works, and where you may already be using it without realising. We'll talk about different types of AI, find out how it can support everyday tasks, and discuss the risks and how to keep safe when using AI tools online.
The session includes interactive activities where you'll have the opportunity to identify AI-generated content and explore useful tools such as translation and image recognition. To get the most from this session, attendees should feel comfortable using a tablet but we will support you to take part in the activities in a simple and accessible way.
Whether you're curious about AI or want to understand how it might affect your digital life, this relaxed and supportive session is a great place to start.
