Artificial Intelligence (AI)

AI & Data Science

Computer systems that perform tasks normally requiring human intelligence, such as reasoning, perception, language and decision-making.

AI spans many techniques, from rule-based systems to machine learning and deep learning. In education it underpins adaptive learning, intelligent tutoring, automated assessment and predictive early-warning systems.
