"AI is Good"
HERE AND NOW AI is a leading technology organization dedicated to making Artificial Intelligence accessible, ethical, and practical. We specialize in educating the next generation of engineers and developers on how to leverage AI to solve real-world problems. Our mission is to bridge the gap between complex AI research and scalable, production-ready applications.
This 10-day intensive training program is designed to equip students with the skills required to take AI models from a local development environment to a global scale. We focus on the entire lifecycle—from containerization and cloud orchestration to mobile integration and performance optimization. Students will gain hands-on experience with industry-standard tools and frameworks.
