In this episode of Tech Break by Friday’s “AI Demystified” series, Paraskevi Kivroglou breaks down the mysteries behind one of AI’s most powerful tools. You’ll learn how the brain inspires neural networks (but aren’t brains!), how data travels through layers like beans turning into espresso, and how these models actually “learn” from their mistakes.

We’ll also spotlight real-world game-changers—from Tesla’s Autopilot to cancer-detecting algorithms—and clear up some of the biggest myths about neural networks. Whether you’re new to AI or just want a clearer picture, this episode will leave you feeling informed and curious for more.
