Simon will be using some practical exercises using paper, pens, plates and jelly beans to demonstrate how machine learning algorithms actually work. This helps understand how a “dumb” computer that is just following some coded rules can become “intelligent” and beat Grandmaster Chess players, drive autonomous vehicles or simply pick a Netflix program we will enjoy.
