Bits of AI

Bits of AI is a program for youth in grades 7-8 from the periphery to study artificial intelligence (AI).

The program aims to introduce the academic field of AI to outstanding youth from the periphery, motivate them to continue their studies in this field, and expose them to different aspects, such as responsible use and ethics of artificial intelligence.

These important goals are part of TAD’s agenda to increase the representation of diverse populations in academia and create educational opportunities for all strata of Israeli society.

The Bits of AI program was launched in 2023. Students from the periphery of Israel are invited to participate in the course at Tel Aviv University to learn about machine learning and AI, to meet with various researchers at TAD, and to visit Google.

The scholarships in this program are supported by The Center for AI at Tel Aviv University and by Google.
