Introduction to AI and Robotics - SDS

Introduction to Machine Learning / Deep Learning

Course documents: see the powerpoint files on this mega link³ (2 gigabytes).

Videos:

• How does chatGTP works⁴? (french with english subtitles)
  • INTERACTIVE DEMONSTRATION Word2Vec⁵ (words as vectors, cat close to dog etc.)
• How do AIs invent images⁶ (we'll address music in the next course) ? (french with english subtitles)

Also worth reading: "La revanche des neurones⁷", an article by Dominique Cardon (in french), an excellent introduction to the 2012 AI learning revolution. The first four pages tell the story of the 18-year-old who programmed classic deep learning algorithms into a GPU and improved the object recognition record by an incredible amount, sparking a new craze for Machine Learning.

Using generative AIs for music

⁸

• IA powered DAWs: amped studio⁹, sounds.studio¹⁰ 
• https://www.suno.ai/¹¹ : generate songs through discord or copilot.
• IA music generation tool list¹² (if there is a link in 3rd column, there is an online demo)
  • Musicgen better link¹³.
  • Audiocraft plus¹⁴ 
• https://app.audiogen.co/¹⁵ (music generation and sound design)

  • DEMO BY THE TEACHER!
• Uberduck²⁴ another text to music generator.
• A YouTube video channel with a complete course about IA generative music²⁵ (beware, the course is for people with scientific/computer science background).
• Google MusicFX²⁶ (and ImageFX): music and image generators (US only - you need a gmail account with US localization, see demo video²⁷)

To come (2024): multimodal text to XXX generators (video with voice, sound and music):
