This video lecture will set expectations. It will tell you what the course is about and what the course is not about. This course is purely introductory for people wanting to learn more about what AI is. It is a course teaching about the power and potential of AI, its fields, its history, and future outlook on AI and the job market. However, it does not teach how to program AI.
The second lecture goes into motivations and teaches why it is important to be aware of artificial intelligence. It also teaches about some of the successes and great milestones artificial intelligence had in the past. Also, it briefly outlines where we can see AI in everyday life. After the video lecture, be sure to check two linked documentaries.
In this lecture and accompanying reading materials, we will go through the history of artificial intelligence, spanning from the time people just thought of automation through all the phases of its development until today.
In this lecture, we will go through the types and fields of artificial intelligence and we will try to explain them closer.
Here we will be talking about tasks that AI can perform. However, since most of the latest advances are related to machine learning, we will actually focus more on machine learning, as these can be applied in any field of AI. Also, reading material expands what we talked about in the lecture.
Will your job be automated? This is the main topic of this lecture. We will explore how rise of AI and automation will impact the economy and other areas of life.
Bonus lecture gives overview of additional learning resources that you can use
Would you like to learn about artificial intelligence and machine learning? What it is, what is its history, how it can impact you and the world around us? If that is so, this is the right course you, so go ahead and enroll.
Artificial intelligence is any behavior by the machine that is considered intelligent by humans. People have been dreaming, writing myths and stories about intelligent machines for millennia. In the past 70 years artificial intelligence passed a long journey from being coined to one of the main drivers of the new industrial revolution. AI and automation is changing the world and industries in the pace like never before. The advances that were made in this field are helping inventing new cures, having knowledge of the world at our fingertips and being wealthier then ever in history. However, there are some dangers of ever increasing inequality and Matrix or Terminator like scenarios.
This course will help you understand what AI is, how it developed through history. It will also help you critically think about the achievements and dangers of the AI in the future. We will examine how the rise of AI is touching every industry and what should businesses do to adapt and prepare.
This course is not looking at algorithms and programming, but it is rather aimed at non-experts and non-computer scientist who want to understand the types and impacts of AI on their everyday or their businesses.
The course contains combination of video lectures, and complementary reading materials as well as a list of recommended documentaries that will help you better understand artificial intelligence.
The course is free and therefore there is nothing preventing you to enroll and start learning.
