The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Thursdays

Universities are seeing increasing interest from students wanting to study courses in artificial intelligence.   Multiple universities now run Masters of Artificial Intelligence degrees, with many other courses and related papers at various levels also available.   Victoria University launched a masters in 2021 and last year began an undergraduate major in AI.   Senior lecturer Andrew Lensen told Mike Hosking there’s certainly a big change in society when it comes to AI, and students are onto that and want to study it.  He says that that although developments in the AI space are unfolding quite rapidly, there are a lot of core fundamentals that have been around for the last few decades.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
