Algorithms, AI, and You is a foundational course designed to demystify the technology shaping our modern world. Moving beyond the "magic" of automation, this course provides a clear, technical, and accessible path for anyone to understand how AI systems actually function.
We begin by mastering the "recipe" of computation—the algorithm—before exploring the shift to machine learning, where data replaces static rules. Students will visualize the inner workings of neural networks, breaking down the roles of input, hidden, and output layers. We also tackle the mechanics of how models improve through backpropagation and weight adjustment.
By grounding these concepts in real-world applications—from personalized streaming recommendations to fraud detection—you’ll gain the clarity to distinguish between hard-coded logic and intelligent systems. Join us to transition from a passive observer of technology to a confident, informed participant in the AI-driven future
