📖 What are we learning?
“An AI system can only do what it has been programmed or trained with data to do.” It learns from humans!
Before you build your own chatbot in Scratch, try training this one. Clucky’s AI brain is completely empty right now. Chat with him. If he doesn’t know the answer, he will ask you to teach him. See how quickly he learns!
3. Build your Chickbot! 💻
In this session, we will be using Scratch to create our very own AI chatbot. Put on your headphones so you can follow along with the video below.
Top Tip: Pause the video after each instruction so you know what you are doing, and rewind if you make a mistake!
4. Open Scratch and Save 💾
