Support AI Saturdays (AI6) Abeokuta

Artificial Intelligence (AI), which is on a rise, is capable of transforming every industry in this new age as it helps solve more problems.

AI6 Abeokuta (as part of the global Artificial Intelligence movement) is an active learning community in Ogun State, Nigeria. We organize structured study groups around core AI fields like Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing through the use of MOOCS and courses from top universities across the globe.

Our mission is to democratize Artificial Intelligence and make it open to everyone to learn, make research and contribute to solving challenges faced in the society. We successfully ran the 1st cycle from the 8th of September to the 22nd of December, 2018, a total of 16 Saturdays. We were able to train a community of over 30 individuals with no prior knowledge of Artificial Intelligence on Machine Learning. The focus of the next cycle would be to go deeper into the useful concepts of deep learning for Image recognition and Natural Language Processing and also train more interested individuals to help grow the AI community.

As a community that empowers people to learn Artificial Intelligence with the mission to make this knowledge at the same quality and rigour of the world’s best universities and also accessible to anyone, our numbers are growing; we would be having two separate classes - Beginner classes and Intermediate classes.

For our next cycle starting in April 27, 2019, we have over 100 registered participants, and are hereby sourcing for venue and resources which will help us comfortably offer our classes to the participants every week for 16 weeks.

With your help, we can stay ahead in this booming technology and help build a society where everyone has equal access to opportunities. Your kind donations will be greatly appreciated.
