Compact Course: Hands-on Machine Learning

How does machine learning actually work? The mythical term machine learning and the even more intimidating term artificial intelligence, both refer to a quite broad set of technologies that function in similar ways. In this short seminar, you will learn about the surprisingly simple underlying principles and get hands-on with the topic. Besides spending time on the technical foundation and experimenting, we will discuss the societal aspects of machine learning and the relationship between design and high-tech in a more general context, and how designers can approach such technologically complex topics. You will learn all you need to start your own inquiry into the subject. All skills will be acquired in class, so no prior experience needed.
