Description: In this enlightening seminar, we delve into the transformative power of artificial intelligence (AI) and its potential to address global challenges. The event kicks off with the screening of the thought-provoking TED talk by Andrew Ng (Stanford University, Coursera, DeepLearning.AI). Andrew is a renowned AI visionary. Andrew Ng dispels common fears surrounding AI, emphasizing that it is not our adversary but rather a vital tool for solving pressing issues. From job displacement to existential threats, he systematically debunks misconceptions, advocating for increased AI adoption.

Following Andrew Ng’s talk, we dive into a captivating 30-minute video by Andrej Karpathy (Open AI).
