3 – AI Today

• develop an understanding of the current development and use of AI
• use your teamwork skills to successfully create a presentation as a group

• For the next two lessons, you will be working in groups to create a presentation on current developments in AI. You will present this in your groups to the class.
• Your audience is your peers.
• Before you begin, you will learn how to plan effective presentations.
• The slides below are from presentations on cyberbullying so focus on how the content is presented.

Slides must be accessible

Use images and text

Images can be used to portray details that text can’t. Making the image the focus here has a bigger impact on the audience.

Here is a list of some current AI technology you can use as inspiration, if you have found another type of AI make sure to ask your teacher if it is OK before you start making your presentation.

For this activity you need to work in a group 2-4 to produce a final presentation. The process is as follows:

1. Choose a team leader who will create the original presentation file and share it with your group.
2. Decide on a colour scheme/fonts to use, but manage your time effectively.
3. Create an outline for your presentation — think about what will be displayed on each slide.
4. Divide the slides between your team members (add names to the owners of the slides).
5. Pick one current AI technology (see the list above for suggestions)
6. Answer the default set of questions
7. Pick three questions from question list as your project focus.
8. Work out who is responsible for which questions in your team
9. Each team member works on their own slides.

Focus your time in the first lesson on this topic on the content of each slide. There will be time in the second lesson to add images, etc.

Default Questions Your Team Must Answer:

1. Explain how the technology works?
2. What is its intended design purpose?
3. What are the main features?
4. Find out the history or origins of this technology?
5. How do you interact with this technology?
6. Which AI goals are demonstrated by this technology?

Extra Questions You Must Choose From

You must also choose one of the below questions to answer per member of your team.

So, if there are 3 people in your team, pick 3 questions one each to answer.

For this project you will be awarded a badge as a team, the below assessment rubric will be used to award you marks.
