But we often don’t notice how much it’s incorporated into the different aspects of our lives. This game challenges you and your kid(s) to notice. Designed by Blakeley H. Payne, a researcher at MIT, AI bingo builds on pedagogical research that shows how exposing kids to the way technology works helps develop their interest in STEM and improve their job prospects later on in life. It is also part of a broader curriculum designed for and tested by students from 9 to 14. The full curriculum can be found <a href=„https://docs.google.com/document/d/1e9wx9oBg7CR0s5O7YnYHVmX7H7pnITfoDxNdrSGkp60/edit“ target=„_blank“ rel=„noopener“>here</a>.</p> <p> <h3 class=„p1“>A quick crash course on AI</h3> </p> <p class=„jsx-671803276“>AI is made of three parts: a data set, a learning algorithm, and a prediction.</p> <figure class=„jsx-1143656047 imageset triptych“><div class=„jsx-2418869611 image triptych c13“><noscript> <div class=„jsx-1546557212 mediaContainer“><img alt=„illustration of a dataset“ src=„https://cdn.technologyreview.com/i/images/jf20chapter2aikids2.jpg?sw=290&cx=130&cy=133&cw=571&ch=571“ srcset=„https://cdn.technologyreview.com/i/images/jf20chapter2aikids2.jpg?sw=290&cx=130&cy=133&cw=571&ch=571 1x, https://cdn.technologyreview.com/i/images/jf20chapter2aikids2.jpg?sw=580&cx=130&cy=133&cw=571&ch=571 2x“ role=„button“ tabindex=„0“ class=„jsx-1546557212 enlargable c11“/> </div> </noscript></div> <div class=„jsx-2418869611 image triptych c13“><noscript> <div class=„jsx-1546557212 mediaContainer“><img alt=„illustration of a dataset“ src=„https://cdn.technologyreview.com/i/images/jf20chapter2aikids3.jpg?sw=290&cx=55&cy=25&cw=600&ch=600“ srcset=„https://cdn.technologyreview.com/i/images/jf20chapter2aikids3.jpg?sw=290&cx=55&cy=25&cw=600&ch=600 1x, https://cdn.technologyreview.com/i/images/jf20chapter2aikids3.jpg?sw=580&cx=55&cy=25&cw=600&ch=600 2x“ role=„button“ tabindex=„0“ class=„jsx-1546557212 enlargable c11“/> </div> </noscript></div> <div class=„jsx-2418869611 image triptych c13“><noscript> <div class=„jsx-1546557212 mediaContainer“><img alt=„illustration of a dataset“ src=„https://cdn.technologyreview.com/i/images/jf20chapter2aikids4.jpg?sw=290&cx=100&cy=108&cw=650&ch=650“ srcset=„https://cdn.technologyreview.com/i/images/jf20chapter2aikids4.jpg?sw=290&cx=100&cy=108&cw=650&ch=650 1x, https://cdn.technologyreview.com/i/images/jf20chapter2aikids4.jpg?sw=580&cx=100&cy=108&cw=650&ch=650 2x“ role=„button“ tabindex=„0“ class=„jsx-1546557212 enlargable c11“/> </div> </noscript></div> </figure><div> <ol><li class=„p1“>A <strong>data set</strong> is a collection of curated data. It doesn’t have to be just numbers! It can be images, amounts of time, numbers of YouTube views, all the texts and emojis you’ve ever sent, or even video and audio recordings. All of these contain valuable information about how people—and the world around them—behave.</li> <li class=„p1“>An <strong>algorithm</strong> is a set of instructions that turns something (an input) into another thing (an output). A sandwich-making algorithm, for example, would turn a bunch of ingredients (bread, peanut butter, and jelly) into a delicious lunch (a PB&J sandwich).</li> <li class=„p1“>The AIs we use daily are learning algorithms. They “learn” to write their own instructions for turning inputs into outputs—but first they need a teacher. An email spam filter, for example, learns to identify spam by looking at lots and lots of examples. Then it can <strong>predict</strong>, when shown a new email, whether it’s spam or not.</li> </ol></div> <p> <h3 class=„p1“>Instructions for kids</h3> </p> <figure class=„jsx-1143656047 imageset max“><div class=„jsx-2418869611 image max c14“><noscript> <div class=„jsx-1546557212 mediaContainer“><img alt=„Comic style illustration of bingo instructions“ src=„https://cdn.technologyreview.com/i/images/jf20chapter2aikidsinstructionsc.png?sw=890&cx=33&cy=47&cw=2132&ch=2453“ srcset=„https://cdn.technologyreview.com/i/images/jf20chapter2aikidsinstructionsc.png?sw=890&cx=33&cy=47&cw=2132&ch=2453 1x, https://cdn.technologyreview.com/i/images/jf20chapter2aikidsinstructionsc.png?sw=1780&cx=33&cy=47&cw=2132&ch=2453 2x“ role=„button“ tabindex=„0“ class=„jsx-1546557212 enlargable c11“/> </div> </noscript></div> <figcaption class=„jsx-4039366481 caption max“><p>Tomi Um</p> </figcaption></figure><p> <h3 class=„p1“><strong>Instructions for adults</strong></h3> </p> <p class=„jsx-671803276“>Print out all of the materials below these two paragraphs, with each bingo card on a separate paper and the list of data sets & predictions on a third. Pass out the bingo cards to the separate teams and keep the list for yourself. It will serve as both the answer key and the bingo calls.</p> <p class=„jsx-671803276“>Along with every data set and prediction, you will see the task that it corresponds to on the Bingo boards. Read out the data set and prediction pairs at random (but not the task itself!) and have the players fill in the tile they think it belongs to. The first of the two teams to correctly fill out five tiles in a row, diagonal, or column wins.</p> <figure class=„jsx-1143656047 imageset max“><div class=„jsx-2418869611 image max c15“><noscript>
