<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-hands-on-learning-in-generative-ai“>Hands-on learning in generative ai
In the rapidly evolving world of ai, staying ahead requires more than just theoretical knowledge. With generative ai emerging as a transformative force, hands-on training is critical. Because? Because technology is better understood when it is put into practice. Learn to navigate the complexities behind ai models, data management, and the limitations of real-world applications.
Generative ai is still in its nascent stages, but the pace at which it is growing is unprecedented. And because of this rapid growth, the skills and knowledge needed to excel are constantly evolving. Practical learning not only helps reinforce theoretical concepts but also prepares you to face challenges head-on.
Why choose DataHack Summit 2024?
At DHS 2024, you will dive deep into the world of generative ai. This event is the epicenter of all the buzz, innovation, brainstorming and passionate debates surrounding technology. This year, we've curated 10+ immersive workshops on cutting-edge topics to bring you maximum value.
While many summits offer talks and presentations, the DataHack Summit goes much further. Our workshops are not just lectures, but interactive sessions where you actively participate, apply your skills and enhance your experience. These workshops aim to transform you from a passive learner to an active practitioner in just one day. This is the most value you can get for one day, so you know you won't want to miss out. Last year, our workshops sold out months in advance, a testament to the quality and demand for these sessions.
Why attend our workshops?
Our ai, ML and Generative ai workshops are carefully designed to provide a comprehensive and engaging learning experience. Here's a look at what to expect:
- Duration: 8+ hours
- Format: Instructors will break down real-world problem statements and guide you through the process of solving them. Interactive sessions using Python notebooks and other hands-on tools will ensure you have a hands-on experience.
- Aim: Equip yourself with the skills and knowledge needed to tackle complex data-driven problems in one day.
- Interaction level: High! With a very limited number of participants (50 per workshop), you will have individual attention and support, promoting a collaborative learning environment.
- Practical work: Bring your laptops as you'll be working on data sets, code, construction models, and more.
