### *Education on the Horizon: Teaching and Learning with Technology* ## Week 8: Personalized and Adaptive Learning with AI Pt. 1 === #### Dr. Yizhen (Eejain) Huang ###### Department Erziehungswissenschaft, University of Potsdam --- ### Have you experienced these in your everyday life? - YouTube suggests new videos based on what you have watched - Your smart phone can automatically create an album with photos with your face in it - You have to prove "I'm not a robot" during login - These are possible because of “artificial intelligence” (AI) ![](/media/captcha.jpg) --- ### What is artificial intelligence (AI)? - AI are intelligent computer programs that mimic the problem-solving and decision-making capabilities of the human mind - All the current AI applications are narrow and weak: - solves a specific kind of problem: e.g., autonomous car, ad optimization, chatbot - only acting intelligently in a few areas (pattern recognition and generation), not "thinking" intelligently (self-conscious mind) <!-- - Traditional computer program: Input → Output is predetermined --> <!-- - AI: Input → Output is conditional --> <!-- - training data → algorithm → real data --> --- ### Key features of AI - Autonomy: The ability to perform tasks in complex environments without constant guidance by a user. - Adaptivity: The ability to improve performance by learning from experience. --- ### Why is it "intelligent"? - Learning is the acquisition of associations: what input leads to what output - AI can make inferences about new inputs based on learned associations - Therefore AI is capable of "learning" based on "past experience", similar to human decision making - [Computer Scientist Explains Machine Learning](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5q87K1WaoFI) --- ### What is ML? - Machine learning (ML) is a subfield of AI, which deals with building systems that improve their performance in a given task with more and more experience or data. ![](/Users/naskuv/Library/CloudStorage/OneDrive-SharedLibraries-UniversitätPotsdam/Dirk Richter - Eejain/OtherProjects/Workshop/ai_taxonomy.png) --- ### Two types of ML - supervised learning: use labeled data as examples to achieve classification and prediction, e.g., identify fake Twitter bots, recognize handwritten numbers - unsupervised learning: use unlabeled data to reveal hidden structures and generate output similar to input, e.g., write in the tone of Shakespeare, generate image based on text prompt --- ![](/Users/naskuv/Library/CloudStorage/OneDrive-SharedLibraries-UniversitätPotsdam/Dirk Richter - Eejain/OtherProjects/Workshop/ai_face1.png) --- ![](/Users/naskuv/Library/CloudStorage/OneDrive-SharedLibraries-UniversitätPotsdam/Dirk Richter - Eejain/OtherProjects/Workshop/ai_face2.png) --- ### Some interesting AI demos --- ## Generative Text <!-- - [AI writes news](https://talktotransformer.com/) --> - [AI answers any questions](https://chat.openai.com/chat) <!-- - [AI writes your email](https://app.flowrite.com/write) --> --- ## Generative Graphic <!-- - [AI draws landscape](http://gaugan.org/gaugan2/) --> <!-- - [AI draws anything based on your text](https://openai.com/blog/dall-e/) --> - [AI draws anything based on your prompt](https://www.midjourney.com/showcase/recent/) <!-- - https://stability.ai/blog/stable-diffusion-v2-release --> - [AI video](https://imagen.research.google/video/) <!-- - [Another competitor](https://imagen.research.google/) --> <!-- - [AI creates art](https://app.wombo.art/) --> <!-- - [Create anime styled selfies](https://waifu.lofiu.com/) --> <!-- - [How about oil-painting styled selfies](https://ai-art.tokyo/en/) --> <!-- - [Generative story](https://ai-adventure.appspot.com/) --> <!-- - [AI guessing memes](https://twitter.com/ResNeXtGuesser/status/1477391701807300608) --> <!-- - [more demos](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/research/ai-demos/) --> --- ## Generative Voice and Sound <!-- - [Deep fake voice](https://fakeyou.com/) --> - [AI deep fake voice](https://beta.elevenlabs.io/speech-synthesis) <!-- - [Another highly realistic voice generator](https://play.ht/blog/introducing-truly-realistic-text-to-speech-with-emotion-and-laughter/) --> <!-- - [Generative music](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/research/ai-art-gallery/artists/aiva/) --> - [Generative music](https://www.riffusion.com/) --- ## Moving AI (virtual human) - [AI talk to human](https://youtu.be/BpnnD_0IlbE?t=380) - [AI talk to AI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jz78fSnBG0s) --- # Human or AI? - https://app.humanornot.ai/
