Local families explore AI and machine learning together
Code Ninjas Hemel invited local families to step into the exciting world of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning at a free community event at the weekend.
Designed for curious minds of all ages, the session offered families the chance to explore the fascinating technologies shaping our everyday lives – from voice assistants and image recognition to creative coding with AI tools.
“We’re thrilled to have hosted this event with the support of Marlowes Shopping Centre,” said Robin Theakston, Co-Owner of Code Ninjas Hemel.
“AI is changing the world faster than ever, and this was a brilliant way for families to discover what it’s all about – together. We want to show that learning about AI doesn’t have to be intimidating. It can be exciting, inspiring and full of creativity.”
Founded with the mission to make coding fun and accessible for young people, Code Ninjas offers after-school and holiday programmes where children aged 5-14 learn to code by building their own games, apps and robotics projects. At Code Ninjas Hemel, learning is hands-on, imaginative and full of problem-solving – all in a space that feels more like a gaming studio than a classroom.
“AI is no longer something for the future – it’s part of our lives right now,” said Co-Owner Charlie Gunn. “This workshop was a fantastic way for families to experience how creative and accessible technology can be. We hope it sparks curiosity and gives young people the confidence to explore the endless possibilities of coding and AI.”
