Hello everyone, this week our team has been hard at work learning more about AI works. We learned the difference between unconditional vs conditional generative AI, generative vs discriminative techniques, and how to build a rough ML model script using Python and libraries found on Hugging Face. It is exciting times ahead for us! We also received some test data from Fanatics that we can use to train an AI model, so in the coming weeks we are going to be trying that.

Deliverables

The team also worked on a preliminary product architecture. We are waiting to hear back about how Fanatic’s backend structure works to improve on it. We also have been working on our product design report and finishing up the draft. We are presenting next Tuesday to the class and getting valuable feedback on how to improve our presentation for the real presentation to our sponsor Fanatics!
