How can a machine learn by itself?
On the road to knowledge with music for 3 to 6 year olds!
Today, we are going to explore artificial intelligence.
Pictures of our little adventurers in action - can you come and play with them?
🎼 Ready to move, sing and dream?
This first melody will take you on a musical discovery of the world!
🎤 Move, sing, discover!
Let's get adventurous with this second soundtrack. 😀
🎙 Read the lyrics to our music:
The lyrics of the two songs are identical, only the melodies are different.
The adventure begins with a story and discoveries for 6 - 8 year olds!

📝 Quick summary of key information
How can a machine learn by itself?
Artificial intelligence, or AI, is like a brain for machines. It helps them learn and solve problems. But how can a machine learn by itself?
With data and observation, an AI can recognize things and get better without being told everything. For example, an AI can learn to recognize pictures of cats by looking at lots of cat photos.
Machines use information and examples to learn. They watch, compare, and get better little by little. It's like they do homework all by themselves!
This is very useful because it helps machines become smarter and helps us with many tasks. For example, they can help us find information or play games.

The Awakening of Intelligence
How can a machine learn by itself?
The Discovery of the Learning Dome
In Noa's house, a curious boy with a keyboard-shaped jacket, a tablet full of diagrams, and a big smile ready to learn, and Mila, a girl full of imagination who wears a pink headset, a magic notebook connected to AI, and a dress that changes color with her ideas. An artificial intelligence (1) named IAlexandra, a robot with a pixel-changing face and spiral-colored eyes, has been activated. After discovering a machine that learns like a magic brain, they decided to explore the mysteries of artificial intelligence together. Today, they are ready to discover a new world. After spending hours playing with IAlexandra, Noa and Mila decided to follow this mysterious trail, guided by blinking signs that lead to a sparkling world… full of intelligence.
Noa, curious, asks:
« IAlexandra, do you know how machines learn? »
IAlexandra, with a bright smile on her pixel face, says: « Yes, I can show you! Follow me to the Learning (2) Dome (3). »
While playing in a futuristic room, Noa and Mila hear about a machine that learns like a magic brain. They decide to follow this mysterious clue, guided by blinking signs that lead to a sparkling world… filled with intelligence. Giant screens show thousands of pictures. Noa and Mila are amazed. They see cats, cars, and flowers. IAlexandra explains that artificial intelligence learns to recognize objects by looking at these images.
Noa, curious about how machines work, asks:
« How does the AI know if it has learned well? »
IAlexandra, with a pixel smile, explains:
« The AI shows a chart with percentages. If she recognizes 95% of the pictures correctly, she has learned well! »
Mila, curious, asks then:
« How can IAlexandra get better? »
IAlexandra, with a pixelated smile, explains:
« You just need to show her more pictures and give her examples so she can learn even better. »
Noa and Mila decide to help IAlexandra. Pictures of their favorite toys are taken and added to the database. IAlexandra then starts to recognize their toys. The children are happy to see their machine learning. They then hear about a machine that learns like a magical brain. They decide to follow this mysterious clue, guided by blinking signs that lead to a sparkling world... full of intelligence.
The Adventure in the Deep Learning Cave
Guided by blinking signs, Noa and Mila walk through a glowing tunnel. They find a sparkling door. IAlexandra then tells them about the Deep Learning Cave.
Noa, curious, asks:
« What is the Deep Learning Cave? »
IAlexandra, with a smile made of pixels, explains:
« It's a place where artificial intelligence learns complicated things. »
Mila, curious, asks then:
« How can IAlexandra learn complicated things? »
IAlexandra, with a smile in pixels, explains: « The AI uses neural networks (4). These are little machines that are inspired by the human brain. »
Noa and Mila find a magic machine that learns like a brain. To understand better, they go into a futuristic room where glowing signs show how the machine learns. Each sign lights up an important step. They are told that each step learns a little bit of information and passes it on to the next one.
Guided by the sparkling lights of the signs, Noa and Mila enter a room filled with screens. A happy voice echoes: I am here to learn... and have fun! An artificial intelligence, IAlexandra, smiles at them, her eyes in colorful spirals. Hello, kids! Ready to explore the world of artificial intelligence? Noa and Mila nod enthusiastically. Mila, with her pink headphones and magical notebook connected to the AI, is especially excited. They have discovered how a machine can learn on its own by observing and improving with examples. They have helped the AI recognize objects, draw, and even invent new shapes. Mila, with her dress that changes color with her ideas, is eager to find out what else the AI can learn. Tomorrow, we will explore the Artificial Imagination Workshop (5), announces IAlexandra. There, we will invent stories and music with the AI! The kids jump for joy at the thought of this new adventure. They know that the AI still has a lot to learn and that they will be there to help. Together, they will continue to explore the mysteries of artificial intelligence and discover the wonders it can create.
