The Evolution of Artificial Intelligence at CodeBoxx
As the CodeBoxx Curriculum was being developed in 2018, a significant focus was placed on the latest cloud capabilities provided by major players such as Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and Amazon Web Services, with an emphasis on leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a service. This decision stemmed from the realization that dedicating several weeks to AI would be essential for the students' understanding and skill development.
Passion for AI
The introduction of the Artificial Intelligence weeks at CodeBoxx was always a highlight, particularly for individuals like myself who harbor a deep passion for the subject. My journey with AI began long before, as I delved into different forms and applications of this cutting-edge technology. From experimenting with AI during my tenure as the CTO of The RealReal to making predictive analyses on customer purchasing behavior at vente-privee.com, my exposure to AI has been both extensive and enlightening.
Impactful Applications of AI
The application of AI, especially in fields like facial recognition, has revolutionized sectors such as law enforcement. Platforms like clearview.ai have demonstrated the power of AI in solving complex criminal cases swiftly and efficiently. However, with this power comes responsibility, as debates continue on the ethical use of AI and measures to prevent misuse.
