Dr. Labrecque delivered an invited lecture on the Introduction to Artificial Intelligence to Computer Science and Education majors at Lamnbung Mangkurat University.
The session explored the fundamentals of AI, its real-world applications, and its growing impact on education, technology, and society. The lecture also introduced neural networks—computer systems inspired by the human brain that enable machines to recognize patterns, learn from data, and make decisions.
Students learned about different kinds of neural networks, including feedforward neural networks, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) used in image recognition, recurrent neural networks (RNNs) used for sequential data and language processing, and modern deep learning systems powering today’s AI technologies. The discussion highlighted how these technologies are shaping the future of education.
