Demystifying Generative AI
First, let’s get to know Mr. Yosi, an expert in the field of information technology and programming. Mr. Yosi has years of experience teaching and developing software and has contributed to various technology projects. Before moving forward, let’s answer a few brief questions about functions from level 1 to level 2, such as multiples of numbers.
Next, we will discuss artificial intelligence (AI), which is currently used for various tasks. AI has become an extremely useful tool for tasks such as video creation, music composition, and much more. AI technology allows us to automate processes that previously required significant skills and time. With AI, we can create multimedia content more efficiently and innovatively, opening new opportunities across various industry sectors.

After the photo session, the participants went up to L4 to create something interesting guided by Ce Jojo, an Electrical Engineering student. They then returned to L1 to make pins and stickers with guidance from Kelvin, S.T., M.M., a lecturer in the S1 Industrial Program. Next, they visited the E3 Creative Room to see works from the Product Design department.
