How will AI help medicine but how could it harm us. This course will provide a high-level overview of AI techniques. Through pre-built hands-on exercises, we will cover neural networks and their applicability to generative AI and large language models. We will also discuss the societal and ethical issues surrounding the real-world applications of AI. This course is healthare oriented, looking at the intersection of AI and Genetics to analyze advances that could be made but also ethical questions that should be asked. The course is designed to be accessible to many disciplines and there are no pre-requisites.
