Today, we're going to explore Teachable Machine. This tool helps you train machine learning models without any coding skills. Why do you think this is useful?
Because it makes machine learning accessible to everyone!
Exactly! With tools like Teachable Machine, anyone can experiment with AI. It allows users to explore image, audio, and pose data. Can anyone mention what types of experiments we can do?
We can do image classification, right?
And audio classification too!
Great! Let's remember this with the acronym **IAP**: Image, Audio, Pose. These are the three main types of classification we can perform with Teachable Machine.
Creating a Model

Now, let’s talk about how to create a model. Can anyone tell me the first step?
We need to open Teachable Machine!
That's right! Once you’re in, what's next?
We choose the type of project related to images, sounds, or poses.
Correct! After that, you can create categories for your model. Remember, categorizing is crucial because it helps the machine understand what to learn. What can we categorize for an image project?
Different facial expressions like happy or sad.
Exactly! Let’s summarize: to create a model, start with opening Teachable Machine, select a project type, and then create categories. Remember the mnemonic **OPC**: Open, Project type, Categories!
Engaging with the Tool

One of the reasons we are using Teachable Machine is its interactivity. Why do you think interactivity is important?
Because it makes learning more engaging and fun!
Exactly! The immediate feedback helps students to see how changes affect their models. What’s one way you think we can use this feedback?
We can adjust our data or retrain the model based on its performance.
Precisely! This leads to a better understanding of AI concepts. Let’s remember that with **FAR**: Feedback, Adjust, Retrain.
Exporting Models

Lastly, once you have trained your model, what can you do with it?
We can export it to TensorFlow for more advanced projects!
That's right! Exporting allows you to incorporate your model into other applications. Why do you think this is beneficial?
It lets us create more complex projects, maybe even make games!
Exactly! This shows how AI can be integrated into various technologies. Let’s remember exporting models as **EAT**: Export, Advanced, Technology.

Chapter Content
A browser-based tool by Google that allows students to train custom machine learning models in image, sound, and pose without coding.
Detailed Explanation
Teachable Machine is an online platform that enables users to create their own machine learning models easily. With this tool, individuals do not need to have any programming skills to start experimenting with AI. Instead of writing complex code, users can simply collect data and train models directly in their web browser. The process is designed to be user-friendly, making it accessible for students and beginners who are looking to learn about AI.
Examples & Analogies
Think of Teachable Machine like a recipe book for making your favorite dishes. Instead of needing to know how to cook professionally, you can follow the straightforward steps in the recipe. In the same way, Teachable Machine provides the steps to train AI models without needing to understand the intricate coding 'cooking' that usually goes into making sophisticated AI.

Chapter Content
• Image Classification (similar to emoji generator).
• Audio Classification (e.g., recognize claps, whistles).
• Pose Classification (e.g., yoga poses).
Detailed Explanation
Teachable Machine offers several fun and interactive experiments that users can try. These include:
- Image Classification: Users can train models to recognize and classify images, similar to how the emoji generator works. This can involve training the model to identify different objects or expressions.
- Audio Classification: This feature allows the model to listen for sounds like claps or whistles and respond accordingly. It’s an exciting way to explore how machines can understand audio.
- Pose Classification: Users can train models to recognize different body postures, such as yoga poses. This experiment combines movement with technology, showcasing how AI can read and interpret human activity.
Examples & Analogies
Consider teaching a dog to recognize different commands. Just like how a dog learns to respond to 'sit' or 'stay' after repeated practice, you can teach Teachable Machine to recognize different images, sounds, or body poses by repeatedly showing it examples. For instance, if you clap your hands and show the model a picture of a clap, it learns to associate the sound with the action and can recognize it later.
