Description disponible en anglais uniquement.
This interactive workshop gives participants a deep dive into AI, machine learning, and related emerging technologies, through the lens of Design Thinking. The Design Thinking approach provides individuals & teams a unique, repeatable and scalable approach that can be applied to building better AI-enabled solutions.
Participants will walk away with a set of practical tools, methods & frameworks focused on applying these technologies to customer and organizational problems. The workshop is closely aligned with the Canadian federal guiding principles on the responsible use of AI in government.
