Course Description
Over 10 years after the major breakthrough in 2012 that triggered the third AI boom, the implementation of AI in society is progressing competitively around the world. Through this course, students will learn about the characteristics of AI and how new technologies are being used to solve social issues.
AI is currently being developed by startup companies for various uses. In addition to learning about such AI startups, students will participate in group work in which they will simulate launching their own AI startup.
Students will study examples of the social implementation of AI around the world, learn about the startup companies that have implemented AI, and think about how AI can be applied to common issues through group work in interdisciplinary teams as they launch “AI startups.”
During the course, students will also aim to obtain the G-Certificate, a generalist deep learning certification offered by the Japan Deep Learning Association.
