Coding & Robotics with N.D Elroi  Welcome, Students !  Lesson 1 Artificial Intelligence (AI) Learning Outcomes Bythe end of thislesson,studentswill be able to: 1.Define Artificial Intelligence (AI) and understand its basic concepts. 2.Recognize the everyday applications of AI in their lives. 3.Discuss the benefits and potential challenges of AI. 4.Explore how AI can be used for problem-solving. 5.Discover professional career paths related to AI.  Materials Needed for Class Projector Functional Laptop Internet Curiousity Attention Quietness  Introduction Have you ever heard of Artificial Intelligence?  Concepts & Definitions Artificial Intelligence is a field of computer science where machines are programmed to think and learn like humans.  Key AI Concepts Machine learning: Computers can learn and make decisions from data. Automation: AI can perform tasks without human intervention. Natural language processing: AI can understand and communicate in human languages. Everyday AI Applications Voice assistants (e.g., Siri, Alexa) Smartphones using facial recognition Recommendation systems (e.g., Netflix suggesting movies) Autonomous vehicles (e.g., self-driving cars)  Benefits and Challenges Some benefits of AI include: Improved efficiency, Medical advancements, and Convenience. Potential challenges include privacy concerns and job displacement.  AI for Problem-Solving AI can be used to solve problems: Self-driving cars use AI to navigate safely, reducing accident rates and improving road transportation. AI can help diagnose diseases by analyzing medical data. Early disease detection like cancer increases greater chances of survival  AI-Related Professional Careers Some AI related professional career paths Data Scientist: Analyzing data to gain insights and make predictions. Machine Learning Engineer: Building and training AI models. Robotics Engineer: Designing and programming robots.  AI-Related Professional Careers Others include: AI Ethicist: Ensuring AI systems are developed responsibly. AI Researcher: Advancing the field by conducting research. Activity Time In a group of 3, use 10mins to search the internet on some of the AI-related careers, then discuss the following: What you find interesting about that career What skills would be required How can you also contribute to it in the future Class recap Did You Know? Tech workers are some of the world’s highest earners.  Homework Research one of the AI-related careers in more depth and prepare a short presentation to share with the class in the next session.
