Instructors of the course include CAII affiliates ChengXiang Zhai, Rhanor Gillette, and Ekaterina Gribkova, as well as Yuji Zhang and Ke Yang.
This Seminar course will discuss recent breakthroughs in Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies, many of which were inspired by our understanding of biological intelligence and how the human brain works. This course will explore a wide range of topics in AI, with a particular focus on biologically plausible AI agents and their development towards human-level intelligence. Each week we will review, present, and discuss current state-of-the-art AI models, while specifically focusing on biological plausibility.
