WHEN AND WHERE?
PROGRAM
LECTURE
What’s under the hood of ChatGPT?
Do you want to know how today’s AI models process natural language? How does the training of such model look like? How does a model learn to use tools like a calculator or how it can surf on the internet? Does the model also learn from me when I text with it? If you’re interested in these answers, this lecture is for you!
WORKSHOPS
Am I too often on the social media?
What does the data say about posting on Facebook? That’s what we’ll look at in this workshop, where we’ll try to analyze the data using Python and Google Colab. We will highlight the concept of empirical probability, or the relative frequency of some event under study, which is also used in machine learning methods.
Taming wild threads
Do you want to have your apartment renovated in a month, but the master can do it in 6? Simple solution, call 6 masters. Is your program running slowly? Divide its work between multiple threads running in parallel. At the workshop, you will try out how to run multiple functions at the same time, what problems arise, and how to solve them.
To approve or not to approve a loan?
At this workshop, you will experience what it’s like to be in the shoes of a bank officer and decide who to grant a loan to. You will try to build a statistical model based on different client data to help you decide.
FAQ
Why is DataDay 4 on a Saturday?
The event is intended for all high school students who like to think and discover new things, not only during the school week. The workshops will be led by great people from the university and from Košice companies.
What should I bring?
Above all, bring a good mood. If you like to work on your laptop, bring that too. However, it is not necessary – if you do not have a laptop, the workshops will be in the computer rooms, where you will have a computer at your disposal.
