Artificial intelligence (AI) has numerous applications in today’s world. AI has enabled us to build machines that can think rationally and sometimes as a human. AI can be seen everywhere, from self-driving cars to a simple chatbot or even YouTube video recommender. This course is a gentle introduction to AI’s basic concepts and methodologies from both theoretical and practical perspectives. The course covers essential intuitions behind different AI methods (e.g., machine learning and deep learning) as well as the business-side topics, like the implications of AI and its effect on today’s industry. By the end of this course, the student will be familiar with modern AI aspects as his/her very first steps on the journey to AI. The student will learn to think outside the box using AI and present AI-based solutions using appropriate methods discussed in the course.
