At our recent Decatur Makers monthly Members Meeting, we had the privilege of hosting a thrilling lightning-round showcase of cutting-edge AI research from Georgia Tech. The topics ranged from AI literacy to artistic complexity and even support for post-secondary education. It was a testament to the incredible depth of inquiry displayed by researchers dedicated to pushing boundaries in their fields. Curious to learn more and see the brilliant minds at work?
