AI Basics for Employees

Course Description:

Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to computer systems that can perform complex tasks normally done by humans. AI can perform cognitive functions typically associated with the human mind, such as learning, comprehension, problem-solving, and decision-making. With the use of AI, machines are able to learn from experience, adapt to new information, and use data, algorithms, and computer power to interpret complex situations and make decisions with minimal human input. AI can understand language, recognize patterns, solve problems, and even demonstrate creativity, often at speeds and scales far beyond our own. AI is transforming how people interact with technology and expanding what machines can achieve.
