AI Basics: What Artificial Intelligence Actually Is (and Isn't) (BG) course

You don't need to be a programmer to understand AI. This course gives you the honest, jargon-free foundation: what AI and ChatGPT actually are, how large language models work in plain English, why AI makes things up, and how AI already shows up in your daily life. By the end, you'll be able to have an informed conversation about AI, use AI tools with confidence, and see through the hype. This course is the recommended starting point before taking any other AI Readiness course.
