How can students benefit from Artificial Intelligence?

Evis Plaku PhD (c)/ Learn about the possibilities offered by AI and how students can learn to use this technology that is changing the world

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a technology that is fundamentally changing the way we live and work. It enables computing devices to perform tasks that require human intelligence, such as making decisions and solving complex problems. AI applications are increasingly present in many fields, from health, education, and finance, to autonomous cars and virtual assistants. How can we use and learn this technology?

What is AI?

Artificial Intelligence is a combination of algorithms and big data that enables the creation of systems that perceive, reason and act. Using techniques like machine learning enables AI to improve over time, without the need for detailed programming for each task. For example, AI can learn to translate by analyzing millions of texts or predict health problems by examining medical records. Also, AI is used for recommendation systems, such as in Netflix, suggesting content based on user preferences.

How can we learn to use AI?

Since there are so many opportunities to learn about Artificial Intelligence, it can be difficult to know where to start. For this reason, we recommend the training offered by the University of Helsinki and MinnaLearn. This free training, called Elements of AI, introduces you to the basic concepts of AI, including machine learning and neural networks, and also provides practical applications related to the technologies that are driving innovation today. The training is simple and does not require advanced knowledge in mathematics or programming, making it suitable for any person who wants to learn.
In six chapters, this training combines theory with interactive exercises that help participants understand fundamental AI concepts. Currently, over 950,000 people from more than 170 countries have enrolled in this training.

Example: AI in education

In modern education, AI has been used to automate repetitive tasks, enabling teachers to focus more on creative teaching. For example, teachers can create chatbots to guide students through interactive lessons or personalize learning experiences. These innovations not only improve the learning process, but also inspire students to explore AI as a topic of study.

How to start using AI

If you're interested in learning more about Artificial Intelligence, the Elements of AI training is a great starting point. The Metropolitan University of Tirana encourages you to try this opportunity and become part of the global discussions about the future of AI.
