Overview

Discover the code-free era of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning, For many, learning to code has always been the first and biggest obstacle into the world of computer science. Many people run into the hurdle of writing a simple line of code, much less developing a useful AI programme that can help them predict their customers’ preferences and recommend a suitable product that meets their needs.

With the recent advancements in AI and machine learning, the world is entering into a code-free era where you can create your own programme without writing a single line of code! Using a variety of code-free machines, you can teach machines to learn and apply helpful knowledge to solve everyday problems on their own. These code-free machines often come in guided platforms, offering classic drag-and-drop functionality to fully automated machine learning services suitable for beginners and machine learning professionals.

In this one-day hands-on workshop, you will learn to create many excellent programmes ranging from training an object detector to building a topic predictor with no code at all. Plus, there will be opportunities to try out DSAID’s code-free AI products such as the Video Analytics System, GovText and Transcribe.

Testimonials

The facilitator shared about the latest development in AI Tech alongside his personal experience, which was useful. We were also given the chance to network with other officers and learn about the usage of AI within their agency.

,

The programme equipped us with a high-level understanding of the no-code machine learning tools available to public officers.

,

The faciliator managed to break down the information into relatable examples, especially for those with little to no background in the topic. This made learning more enjoyable and productive.
