The AI Innovation Fellowship in Interdisciplinary Data Science equips students with in-demand skills like data analysis in Python, statistics in R, and machine learning with tools like Tensorflow and Keras. Leveraging these new tools, students build out a professional portfolio with a capstone project, AI + X, that draws on students' unique interest and domain expertise. Devising powerful techniques at the intersection of AI, Arts, and Music– artists and musicians can use AI to catalyse creativity and fashion new works like never before– such as using AI to dynamically recommend music using Spotify's existing databases, learning diverse art styles using AI-generated images, or independently creating AI driven artwork.
