AI Basics: From Rules to Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence exists because traditional computers reached their limits. For decades, computers have worked by executing rules written by humans. They are reliable and predictable—but they do not think, learn, or adapt. As real-world problems became more complex, rule-based systems began to fail. This course takes a concept-first journey into AI, starting with how traditional computers work and why a new approach was needed. You will learn how machines move from following instructions to learning from data, identifying patterns, and improving through feedback. Instead of focusing on tools or code, this course builds strong mental models that help you truly understand AI—what it is, how it works, and why it matters. By the end, you will have a clear foundation to confidently move into Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Generative AI, and AI Agents. No prior AI or programming experience required.
