EVENT DESCRIPTION

2,4,6,8… There are patterns in numbers, language, nature, and everywhere! Humans are hard-wired to notice patterns, mathematicians analyse and model them, and machines are learning to recognise and apply them. Artificial Intelligence may find patterns humans miss. Is this a good thing?

Join the amazing Matthew Mack a teaching associate in the Department of Mathematics & Statistics for a fun afternoon thinking about patterns, the structure of ChatGPT, and associated AI tools.

The Science Festival Midafternoon Masterclass series is a series of five, 45-minute lectures showcasing up-and-coming scientists and their groundbreaking discoveries! The Masterclasses are online, and will include interactive scientific explanations, experiments, live demonstrations, virtual lab tours, and lots of fun!

Each unique masterclass has been designed to be accessible and appealing to all audiences and is suitable for anyone with a VCE-level scientific understanding. Get your questions ready as our scientists would love the audience to join in the live Q&A and become a part of the presentation.
