AI, Explained in a Day
In one day we demystify artificial intelligence. You'll see what a model actually is, how machines learn from examples, and why the algorithms behind your favourite apps work the way they do. You leave with the mental model most people never get — and a sketch of your own first AI idea.
How AI thinks
No maths wall — just one clear map of data flowing through a model to a prediction.
The day
Four sessions, one clear picture
A single focused day, paced so nothing is rushed and nothing is assumed. You leave with intuition that lasts.
Session 1
What AI actually is
- Intelligence, artificial — cut through the hype
- Models, learning from examples, and predictions
- The one diagram that explains it all
Session 2
Why these algorithms win
- Pattern recognition and prediction, drawn simply
- Neural networks without the scary maths
- Why a method is chosen — the intuition
Session 3
AI in your day
- Face unlock, maps, feeds, autocomplete, recommendations
- Map each everyday moment to the AI behind it
- How the products you use are actually built
Session 4
Your first idea
- Prompt and shape a tiny AI tool, live
- Sketch a project idea that's yours
- Where to go next — and how we keep helping
