Description
Step into the fast-paced world of artificial intelligence! This immersive program is designed to help you understand the foundations of AI, and then develop how AI could shape our future. You'll explore how to identify and define AI, examine the data it uses to become intelligent, and understand the energy and other resources needed to power AI.
Through hands-on projects, you’ll learn to train and refine AI models, from generating images and art to creating chatbots and tools for productivity. Get ready for debates on real-world issues—like who owns AI-created content and the challenges of AI biases and “fakes”. Ideal for students curious about AI careers or its applications in school, work, and life, this course will prepare you to navigate and shape the future of AI.
