GDG EUI hosts Intro to AI Workshop with DotPy

The Google Developer Group (GDG) EUI, under the supervision of the Faculty of Computing and Information Sciences, organized an “Intro to Artificial Intelligence & Prompt Engineering” workshop, with valuable technical input and industry insight provided by DotPy.

The workshop was delivered across two interactive sessions, combining strong theoretical foundations with hands-on practical experience.

During the first session, participants were introduced to the core concepts of Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning. The session explored different types of AI, key machine learning approaches—including supervised, unsupervised, semi-supervised, and reinforcement learning—and provided a high-level overview of common algorithms. It also explained how AI models learn from data and where generative AI fits within the broader AI ecosystem.

The second session focused on bridging theory and practice, with an emphasis on Generative AI and Prompt Engineering. Participants gained insights into deep learning, large language models (LLMs), and multimodal AI systems, while learning how prompt design directly influences AI behavior. The session featured hands-on practice using AI tools for content creation and problem-solving, in addition to discussions on AI limitations, ethics, and responsible use.

The workshop reflects EUI’s commitment to fostering industry-aligned digital skills and empowering students with practical knowledge in emerging technologies, particularly in the rapidly evolving field of artificial intelligence.
