Episode 0030: Neurons

Episode 30 of DRIVEN - Neurons: The Building Blocks of AI

Ever wonder how AI really works under the hood? In this first episode of the DRIVEN AI Masterclass, we zoom in on the humble artificial neuron, the tiny building block that unlocks everything from spam filters to lifelike text generators. Learn how these neuron-inspired bits of math weigh inputs, apply biases, and use activation functions to make decisions. We’ll also connect the dots between early “if-then” models and the massive, multi-layer networks powering today’s top AI tools. If you’re ready for a laid-back yet informative crash course that sets the stage for deep networks, Transformers, and even home-trained generative AI, this is where it all begins. Grab your favorite snack, settle in, and let’s dive into the world of neurons!

What to Expect:

• A quick history of how the artificial neuron got its start

• Simple math behind inputs, weights, biases, and activation functions

• How a single neuron can decide if an email is spam or not

• Why these building blocks matter for everything from image recognition to chatbots
