Are you wondering how AI might affect your job or your life?

Do you want to learn more about what AI really means — and how it’s created?

Do you want to understand how AI will develop and affect us in the coming years?


OUR GOAL IS TO DEMYSTIFY AI

The Elements of AI is a series of free online courses created by MinnaLearn and
the University of Helsinki. We want to encourage as broad a group of people as
possible to learn what AI is, what can (and can’t) be done with AI, and how to
start creating AI methods. The courses combine theory with practical exercises
and can be completed at your own pace.




PART 1


INTRODUCTION TO AI

An Introduction to AI is a free online course for everyone interested in
learning what AI is, what is possible (and not possible) with AI, and how it
affects our lives – with no complicated math or programming required.

PART 2


BUILDING AI

Building AI is a free online course where you’ll learn about the actual
algorithms that make creating AI methods possible. Some basic Python programming
skills are recommended to get the most out of the course.
