go_AI: Let’s make shum in UkrAIne

General description

Have you ever feared Terminator or Altron that could destroy our world with their power? Relax, humanity domesticated artificial intelligence and turned it into a tool that helps us solve regular miscellaneous tasks. The current state of AI is far from annihilating the universe, but it is more and more like a personal assistant of Tony Stark - "J.A.R.V.I.S.". These days, each of us is something of the Iron Man himself.

Let's just look at the basic example, e.g. your trip to the heart of UkrAIne - Kyiv. First, you book tickets with the help of a search engine that finds the best and the cheapest combination of flights for you. Then you order a car-sharing service which finds the fastest route to the airport, taking into account traffic and weather conditions. Playlist for your travel thoughtfully picked up by Spotify AI, which knows what music you’d enjoy. Once in Kyiv, you can easily use your Google Lens to translate Ukrainian signs into your native language, just pointing your camera at them. You can even speak Ukrainian with your translation application, even though you’ve never heard our language. Seems like magic, right? Don’t worry, we’ll teach you how to turn dreams into reality!

During one week, you will be able to intensively gain basic knowledge and discover the technical meaning of Artificial Intelligence. An academic part includes a variety of specialized lectures, workshops, research activities, and company visits. You will receive relevant information from the professionals in this field and have opportunities to do your own project in the end.

But BEST summer course in Kyiv is something more than just regular lectures and workshops. Besides the academic part, you’ll have the chance to experience Kyiv’s amazing charm, its delicious cuisine, which includes the original borscht, varenyky, and many more, and of course its unique architecture!

Moreover, you will get a taste of the famous Ukrainian hospitality and enjoy the rich cultural and social activities that we will organize for you.

And, believe us, when we say that you didn't party until you partied with slavs ;)

So what else are you waiting for? Hurry up and apply! :)
