Today, we’re embarking on an exciting journey into the world of Artificial Intelligence, a field that’s not just transforming technology but shaping the future of how we live, work, and interact with the world around us. Our focus in this module, “AI Fundamentals,” will lay the groundwork for understanding this transformative technology.

Artificial Intelligence, or AI, is essentially about creating machines that can think, learn, and make decisions in a way that, until now, was thought to be uniquely human. Imagine a computer that can interpret a complex image, understand and translate languages, or make strategic decisions. That’s AI in action. It’s not about programming a machine to perform a specific task; it’s about programming a machine to think about how to perform a task.
