Intro to Coding: Training the Model

Discover how AI models learn through hands-on training.

Intro to Coding: Training the Model

Join us for a live, interactive workshop where we’ll demystify how AI models learn. We’ll explore the process behind training machine learning models, how data shapes their behavior and what it really means to ”‘teach” an AI.

What you’ll learn:

  • How popular AI models are trained and what kind of data they use
  • Common pitfalls in training, including data bias and skewed outputs
  • Hands-on: Train a simple model yourself using TeachableMachine.withGoogle.com
  • Best practices for selecting well-rounded training data sets

If you've ever wondered what’s really happening behind the scenes of an AI model this is the workshop for you.

Is this workshop right for you?

This session is open to all experience levels, whether you’re just starting to explore AI or already working with models. No coding experience is required- just curiosity and a willingness to experiment.
