Artificial intelligence was admitted to the university for the first time

For the first time in the world, an artificial intelligence has been accepted as a student at a higher education institution. Euronews reports that a neural network named Flynn will study digital art.

Flynn successfully passed the university's standard admissions process: he submitted a portfolio, participated in an interview and passed entrance exams. Interestingly, the artificial intelligence did not hide the fact that he was not human. However, this did not arouse any suspicion or resistance from the university's teachers.

"There is no written requirement that students must be exclusively human. For obvious reasons, no one has thought about it before," said Liz Haas, head of the university's digital arts department. According to her, Flynn performed very well during the interview process and presented a high-level portfolio.

The specialists who created Flynn announced that they will involve him in classes and interaction with students in order to further improve the artificial intelligence. He is expected to officially start his studies in the fall semester, but is already attending some classes.

This event clearly demonstrates the beginning of a new era in education and how rapidly artificial intelligence is penetrating human activities. Follow “Zamin” news on “Telegram”
