A Beginner's AI Course That Opened My Eyes

I was very apprehensive about using AI. I am a very open-minded person, but for some reason, the thought of AI, based on all the narrative out there gave me pause. As an 'almost senior citizen' in my 60's, this course opened my eyes to many possible ways to implement what I learned. It also gave me the appetite to explore more areas of AI. I have already started using AI for searches saving me hours of research time. Definitely take this beginner course, you will not regret it. - Sharon C.

Overcoming the AI Mystery

As someone who wasn't comfortable with AI, and honestly concerned about it’s place in our life, I found this to be helpful. It took the mystery out of it, and the overarching message for the user to think and use this as a personal digital assistant put it in perspective. - James C.
