artificial intelligence

Explore the maths behind machine learning and deep neural networks with this collection of short introductions and in-depth articles.

Whether you're lost on a mountainside, or training a neural network, you can rely on the gradient descent algorithm to show you the way!

Machine learning makes many daily activities possible, but how does it work?

When trying to build an artificial intelligence, it makes sense to mimic the human brain. Artificial neurons do just that.

Using artificial intelligence to improve traffic, protecting the environment and human health.

Researchers are exploring if quantum mechanics could make machine learning more powerful and shed light on evolution.
In these articles and podcast we explore how agency is what distinguishes us humans from intelligent machines, and how machines might be taught to behave more like we do.

In this podcast we find out why true artificial intelligence will only become possible once machines have something that babies are born with: agency.

In this podcast find out the basics of machine learning, and why time travel and immortality might be easier to achieve than human level artificial intelligence.

How do we learn and understand the world? What separates us from machines? Yoshua Bengio believes it all comes down to our agency.
How do we build our models of the world? Yoshua Bengio explains how deep learning will help machines act to understand the world in a similar way.

Mathematicians are helping to develop an AI tool to help with diagnosing COVID-19 and making prognoses for infected patients.
