  • Compare differences between the various technologies meant when referring to AI

  • Explain AI techniques at a basic level

  • Contrast various ways AI may be used in business: AI as a tool; AI as a product; AI as a service

  • Develop and test business cases for AI

Project Description

The intent of the course is to equip students with a comprehensive understanding of AI fundamentals and its business applications, enabling them to develop tailored AI solutions for clients. Students will gain the skills and knowledge to distinguish between different AI technologies, explain basic AI techniques, and pinpoint AI opportunities for businesses. They will learn to develop and test business cases for AI, manage AI-based projects, and communicate technical concepts effectively to clients and stakeholders.

Learning sessions in this course include Introduction to Low Code & No Code Tools, Exploring Computer Vision, Defining Machine Learning & Deep Learning, Playing with NLP and LLMs, AI in Core Business Data, AI in Media and Transportation, Ethics of AI in Business, Building an AI Prototype, Design, Feedback Loops & Other AI Techniques & Technologies.

This course provides a peer-learning experience for the client and students alike. By collaborating with students, clients get a unique opportunity to explore the immense potential of AI in businesses, and to gain practical insights into AI fundamentals, under guidance from industry professionals.

Deliverables

At the end of the project, students can deliver several valuable assets to the client, based on the goals and outcomes defined during the course. Here are some potential deliverables:

AI Business Cases: Develop and test business cases for AI.

Technical Concept Communications: Communicate technical AI concepts to clients and stakeholders effectively.

AI Reports and Recommendations: Create detailed reports and recommendations based on their learning and project execution.

The exact nature of the deliverables would depend on the specifics of the project and the needs of the client. They would be agreed upon at the beginning of the project and refined throughout the process based on the findings and insights derived from the data.

HOW WILL YOU COLLABORATE?

Experience based Peer-Learning

In this collaborative experience the students will apply a Design Thinking approach following the process of empathise, define, ideate, prototype and test alongside the Hyper Island Experience Based Learning process of doing, reflecting, generalising and applying. In connection with this, the client will take an active role in providing feedback-loops and anchoring the process and progress of the work to their business needs.

Meetings: The client and the student team are expected to meet at least once a week.

By enabling the exchange of diverse ideas and perspectives, it fosters a collective wisdom that drives groundbreaking solutions. By investing in peer-learning, we're not just facilitating knowledge sharing – we're pioneering a culture of collaborative innovation.

FAQ

In a Learning Partnership companies and students meet to exchange value; the students get an opportunity to learn new skills by practical implementation of the learning goals of their coursework and the client gets project deliveries in the form of strategies, reports or production of creative material and assets. Important to remember for clients is that you will be working with students still in training, who will do their best to meet expectations within the brief, but who is still “learning by doing” and who will once the project ends, move on to their next course.
Projects are around 4-6 weeks, during this time you should be available for about 2-4 hours a week to support and touch base with students as they go and to feedback continuously. The students will alongside their project with you have a parallel learning track with workshops, seminars and similar to support and enable them to solve the challenges from the brief successfully.
You have ownership over the ideas and concepts presented by students, to further develop and implement them. An NDA will be applied to ensure sensitive business information remains tightly within the collaboration.
We ask participating companies to pay a sponsorship fee to work with our students. This allows us to fund a team of three people working with Learning Partnerships across all of our full time YH programs in Sweden; ensuring quality of project briefs for our students to get practical training in real client projects as well as supporting the clients in the collaboration. It also supports us to continuously develop our programs and ensure future talent to the industry.
