In this course,  students work on fun, interactive projects that give them a broad overview of AI. They discover how machines learn and solve problems as well as key AI concepts such as machine learning, perception, natural language processing and the Five Big Ideas of AI. They’ll also use their detective skills to search out AI in their world and see how they use it every day.
