We have at some point used AI, whether it is to get some ideas or help us understand a topic, it is a potent tool. Sometimes you will get spot-on answers, other times you will miss. But have you ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes? Come to my Math 480 talk next Wednesday, April 30th, where I will explore how a tool called Convolutional Neural Network works, and how a mathematical theory known as VC theory helps us understand how AI learns to give us the right answers.
I am excited to see how you explore the dynamics of AI learning. I personally run Microsofts phi 4 model through an Nvidia 3080 with a few external python tools to make it more practically available to my documents, but aside from the upfront coding that I create, I am quite ignorant to how the mechanics of it work. I can’t wait to finally learn what makes phi’s clock tick.
AI has become very interconnected into our lives and i cannot wait to learn more about what happens behind the scenes of the answer to our many questions that are asked to AI. I am so excited and i cannot wait!
Previously this semester we learned about AI in Markov Chains and how it can predict the next word you’re about to type. I have also experienced using AI to help me understand a topic and recognize false information. It will be interesting to see how AI corrects incorrect information and learns continuously.
Your topic sounds very interesting! As AI gains prevalence in society, knowledge of the innerworkings of AI becomes increasingly valuable. I have wondered how AI models are able to synthesize information to get a correct answer, so I look forward to hearing your mathematical explanation of VC theory! I have also never heard of the Convolutional Neural Network tool, so I am curious about your explanation of this as well!
AI is something I have always wondered about. I’m looking forward to learning about the inner workings of it and how math plays into it.
Your talk was very interesting! The neural networks are really interesting to me. I’m always interested to learn more about how AI works because it is becoming more and more prevalent in life.
I thought your talk was very interesting Plu and although I am not an avid AI (ChatGPT) user, I have used it before and have found that it gave me some good outlines. I’m also sure I have used AI in other ways or have benefitted from it! It was also interesting to see how math played into AI since it’s not generally something I think of as a math application.
