Words from our Summer 2023 Program Alumni

The Summer 2023 cohort gave us a 4.89/5 rating for their overall experience. 

"I enjoyed my time learning about machine learning a lot! The projects we worked on were really fun and super helpful in understanding the concepts. My favorite project was training a model to predict whether the Titanic passengers survived or not based on different features. It was so cool to see how we could apply our knowledge to real-world problems.

For our final project, we had the freedom to choose what we want to focus on. I think it's a great way to encourage creativity and exploration, allowing me to delve into an area that I find interesting. Kevin was a great instructor as well! He's very competent and always willing to help.

I highly recommend participating in the AI bootcamp."
