Montgomery Bell Academy Summer Program

Note: This will be the same class as last year's offering, as always, No prior computer science knowledge is required. And, it's once again taught by Mr. Spradlin who is a Senior Development Engineer for Amazon who runs the AI for their Airline. No kidding, he's on the forefront of this entire movement and we are lucky to have him!

Now, more than ever, students of the world must learn to grapple with the pitfalls and promises of AI. It's showing up everywhere in our lives from navigating your shortest route to school, to helping you prepare for job interviews, and even reinventing your tuna salad recipe. In this five-day class we will explore how common kinds of artificial intelligence work and dig into their strengths and weaknesses. 

Here's how Chat GPT summarized Mr. Spradlin's course: By the end of the week, participants will gain a solid understanding of AI principles, techniques, and applications, equipping them with valuable knowledge to navigate the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence.

Mr. Spradlin couldn't agree more! Besides being a long-time programming aficionado  and currently a Senior Software Development Engineer at Amazon (where he coordinates their fleet of approximately 100 aircraft), he is also the husband of Ms. Welch in our math department.
