This course will provide students with a functional understanding of Artificial Intelligence (AI). This course begins by exploring the AI ecosystem and the differences between AI, Machine Learning (ML), Deep Learning, and Natural Language Processing (NLP). The course will focus on the ethics of AI, the consequences of biased AI systems, how to detect, and handle biases. Students will learn about big data and how AI works with data including terminologies and workflows. Students will also explore on how to define a goal and business case for AI, how long it takes to build such a system, and how to design the project plan through hands-on workshops.
