In the past decade, artificial intelligence (AI) has become an integral part of our daily lives. From responding to voice commands and guiding drivers around traffic delays to composing our music playlists, AI technology powers tools we use routinely. It also continues to spark debate, with experts expressing both enthusiasm and caution about its future. This course provides a comprehensive overview of AI-its capabilities, limitations, and implications. Participants will engage in lectures and hands-on exploration of AI tools. No prior technical background is required. The course aims to provide participants with a practical understanding of how AI works, experience in applying AI tools to everyday tasks, and the ability to engage in meaningful discussions about the impact of AI on society.
