Machine Learning for the Layperson
Event Information
Description
"Machine learning" and "AI" are everywhere, but what is machine learning exactly about, and how is it different to e.g. blockchain?
We want to provide a gentle introduction and overview for people who are not exposed to computer science and maths, but still want to know what it is all about.
There will be a presentation with some exercises and time to mingle at the end. You will come away with a basic unterstanding of what machine learning is, what it tries to solve and how, and what it is not.
The talk will be delivered by Newspeak House fellow Andreas Kirsch (former Research Engineer at DeepMind and Software Engineer at Google Zurich).
This event is hosted at Newspeak House, a community space focusing on the intersection of politics and technology. To find out about other events we do: www.nwspk.com.

Presentation starts: 7:15pm
