This one-year Work-Study Programme significantly contributed to my personal and professional growth by enhancing my understanding of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its potential applications. I explored important topics such as machine learning, computer vision, and deep learning. One of the modules touched on YOLOv8, an object detection and classification model in the field of computer vision, which I was able to apply directly in my work. Overall, this programme has been beneficial, especially as AI continues to evolve.
