for artists interested in training their own machine learning model from their own small data sets. AI is not magic. In this workshop we look at how you can create your own Machine Learning Model using the Micro:bit. Your tutor will show you how a closed off, small data set AI model can be trained and used to recognise movement and gestures. You will collect motion data, train a machine learning model to detect patterns, then program the micro:bit to run that model. Micro:bit CreateAI is a free, browser-based tool that lets you train a micro:bit to recognise your physical movements (clapping, waving, jumping, etc.) using the device's accelerometer. Micro:bit Educational Foundation You will finish the workshop with your very own personally trained interactive artwork, and an insight into pop culture AI tools.
