AI is becoming a huge part of our lives developing faster than we think.

It’s being used in medicine to spot cancer cells, courtrooms to help determine the risk of criminals re-offending, as well as in art to create new music from analysing composers like Brahms!

For those computer wizzes, this Artificial Intelligence course is perfect to keep teenagers’ brains challenged, engaged and of course playful!

Anyone can study this course but it has been especially designed for those aged 13-17, with a keen interest in modern technology, coding or artificial intelligence. This course will give kids a whole new range of skills that will set them up brilliantly for future employment and education.

They will delve into the issues of computer bias, create a home of the future using Artificial Intelligence and discover how to program an autonomous vehicle!
