Hosted by data scientists from the National Innovation Centre for Data, this workshop is an opportunity to explore the world of natural language processing (NLP).
We will discuss the key concepts around natural language processing, get hands-on with some pre-trained models and contemplate the future in a ChatGPT enabled world.
The workshop will include a technical element using python, however no experience is required and we will work through material as a group.
Bring a laptop if you can!
