Education system worldwide needs a revamp. While some experts mention it as being broken, we still need to work with the system to bring about the change. At WiselyWise we have the pleasure of working with many such companies which bring about the change.

This past Saturday, a hot summer day, I was invited to be a Guest Speaker by our Partners Fundamental Learning Centre for the launch of FunDaLabs, a brand new initiative to enrich students in the Sciences and New Technology. The Labs (who will use our AI Learning Platform – WiseCentral for the AI courses) combines a mix of Science, Cybersecurity, Mindfulness, AI programs towards enriching Students knowledge and ensuring they learn the right skills from the Experts. Available as short duration(few days) to Year-long programs, these are currently run in Singapore starting June 2019.

For those of you Parents wondering how to keep your children busy, occupied and productive during the summer holidays and beyond, I would strongly recommend the Labs Program. If you would like more details, pls ping me on chandru@wiselywise.com or Whatsapp me at +65 82684140.

AI Book : The Emotion Machine

by Chandra Kumar | Jun 12, 2021 | AI, Artificial Intelligence

In this mind-expanding book, scientific pioneer Marvin Minsky continues his groundbreaking research, offering a fascinating new model for how our minds work. He argues persuasively that emotions, intuitions, and feelings are not distinct things, but different ways of thinking.

By examining these different forms of mind activity, Minsky says, we can explain why our thought sometimes takes the form of carefully reasoned analysis and at other times turns to emotion. He shows how our minds progress from simple, instinctive kinds of thought to more complex forms, such as consciousness or self-awareness. And he argues that because we tend to see our thinking as fragmented, we fail to appreciate what powerful thinkers we really are. Indeed, says Minsky, if thinking can be understood as the step-by-step process that it is, then we can build machines — artificial intelligences — that not only can assist with our thinking by thinking as we do but have the potential to be as conscious as we are.

Eloquently written, The Emotion Machine is an intriguing look into a future where more powerful artificial intelligences await.

WiselyWise, the AI EdTech startup today announced the launch of a unique AI curriculum for educational institutions to offer students with modules on conversational AI with Amazon Alexa. International Institute of Information Technology (ISquareIT), Pune has taken the lead by signing an MoU with WiselyWise and will adopt WiseCentral, an AI Education Platform for its students starting August 2019. The course will cover the basics of AI and Natural Language Processing to enable students to build skills for Alexa. The course also has a module on voice design. Considered to be the next big technology disruption, Artificial Intelligence, and Machine Learning has captured the imagination of developers globally and many companies have moved towards creating AI solutions over the last few months. It is estimated that almost 1,500 companies with their focus on AI were launched in Asia-Pacific over the last month.

“During our discussions with many companies, we realized that there was a serious gap in getting relevant, well-trained resources on AI. Companies were forced to take other candidates and train them extensively before they are ready to be productive. We also spoke to many institutions across the US, Singapore, and India, and realized that they have students who are keen to learn AI, but do not have any reliable content that helps them”, said Mr. Chandra Kumar, CEO of WiselyWise. “We created the entire curriculum working closely with the Amazon Alexa team to provide a comprehensive conversational AI and core AI & ML cloud skills for students across K12 and STEM institutes”.

“Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Blockchain technologies are already impacting various industrial sectors and our lives. Current demand for AI ready professionals in the industries has paved a way for value-added courses for graduate students. We want our students and faculty to be proficient & excel in these technologies for a higher degree of placement and successful careers” said Mrs. Aruna Katara, President of Hope Foundation & Research Centre.

According to Dilip R.S., Country Manager for Alexa Skills and Voice Services, Amazon India, “Alexa offers amazing opportunities for Indian developers to provide the most engaging voice experiences. This initiative by WiselyWise delivers AI-ready graduates by offering a highly focused curriculum and advances our efforts to teach Alexa skill-building to students across India”
