Unlocking the Power of Python and AI: A Recap of Yesterday’s Session

Yesterday’s session at the AI Workshop Lagos 2024 was nothing short of amazing! We took a deep dive into the foundational concepts of Python and its application in Artificial Intelligence, equipping participants with essential skills to thrive in a data-driven world.

Here’s a quick recap of what we covered:

Python Fundamentals: Setting the Stage for AI

We began the day with an introduction to Python, highlighting why it’s the go-to language for AI and data science. Participants learned about Python's simplicity, and readability.

Key Topics Covered:

• Variables and Data Types: Understanding how Python stores and processes data through integers, floats, strings, and booleans.
• Control Structures: Participants practised writing conditional statements (if, elif, else) and loops (for, while) to automate repetitive tasks.

Takeaway: Python is more than just a programming language—it's a tool that empowers you to solve real-world problems efficiently.

Highlights from the Day

• Engaging in hands-on coding exercises made learning practical and fun.
• Lively Q&A sessions addressed real-world challenges and use cases.
• Networking opportunities allowed participants to share ideas and learn from each other.

Today, we’ll build on today’s foundation by exploring how to train AI models, evaluate their performance, and extract actionable insights to transform business strategies.
