His keynote address on Friday, \u201cSlowly, and Then All At Once: A survey of AI agents over the last three years and a glimpse into the next three years,\u201d will discuss industry trends since ChatGPT\u2019s launch in 2022 and the current and future landscape of AI capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, the Challenger Learning Center will host the local K-12 community for additional FSU faculty lectures as well as a series of interactive activities \u2014 the first event of its kind in AIMLX series history. Activities include learning about robotics, color coding magnets, basic programming, car challenges, binary number bracelet crafts and more that allow learners of all ages to participate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re highlighting the connection between what goes on at FSU on the scientific level and day-to-day applications of AI tools,\u201d said Gordon Erlebacher, IDS program director and a professor in the Department of Scientific Computing, who will present Saturday on the rapid evolution of AI tools and their impact on daily life. \u201cAI tools have so many uses that students should learn about, and the community day allows participants to directly ask FSU faculty questions about AI while providing a point of contact for the future. We hope that hearing from local experts who use these tools will make AI approachable and relatable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For a full schedule of presentations, events, topics, presenter details and more, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/datascience.fsu.edu\/event\/aimlx26-artificial-intelligence-and-machine-learning-expo-florida-state-university\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the FSU Data Science event website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>AIMLX26 is sponsored by Florida State University, the <a href=\"https:\/\/artsandsciences.fsu.edu\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">FSU College of Arts and Sciences<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/cci.fsu.edu\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">FSU College of Communication and Information<\/a>, the FSU School of Information, the FSU Department of Computer Science, the <a href=\"https:\/\/mll.fsu.edu\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">FSU Department of Modern Languages and Linguistics<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sc.fsu.edu\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">FSU Department of Scientific Computing<\/a>, the FSU Department of Statistics, the Challenger Learning Center of Tallahassee and Ruvos.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The 2026 Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Expo, AIMLX26, is set for Friday, Feb. 27, from 8:30 a.m.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":169169,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[58512,56742,56743,71202,80603,66174,80604,80605,80606,80607,232,234,233],"class_list":["post-169168","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tallahassee","tag-challenger-learning-center","tag-college-of-arts-and-sciences","tag-college-of-communication-and-information","tag-college-of-medicine","tag-department-of-computer-science","tag-department-of-modern-languages-and-linguistics","tag-department-of-scientific-computing","tag-department-of-statistics","tag-fsu-interdisciplinary-data-science","tag-school-of-information","tag-tallahassee","tag-tallahassee-headlines","tag-tallahassee-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/169168","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=169168"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/169168\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/169169"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=169168"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=169168"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=169168"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
