Description Fundamentals of Artificial Intelligence diploma  Artificial intelligence is widely popular and fascinates most people, especially when compared to technology-related topics. The reason behind it may be that it often goes and wanders beyond what we can imagine. We live in a world where we constantly hold smartphones capable of performing tasks we could never have even thought of just ten years ago. We use technological innovations every day, like voice commands, facial recognition, and other tools that can isolate portraits or take group photos. These are things we never imagined were possible, but we have grown used to them today. We have experienced the wonders of AI, and every new aspect awes us. Although technology has become a part of our daily lives, most do not know how it works. Looking at how amazing the effects of AI are, there is no doubt that the way it works will awe us just as much. Narrow AI is more common, which is AI meant to be used powerfully in one case, like AI for facial recognition or detection of spam. AI systems can be used to sort out vast piles of data like recommendation systems and search engines. They can also provide insights into the data. With this kind of narrow AI, it is expected that it can only perform what it is designed to do. A program meant to detect spam or recognize facial features cannot also be expected to play chess, compose songs, and record shows to watch in the future. The Fundamentals of Artificial Intelligence diploma course aims to remove AI's mystery so that the learners can develop a better in-depth understanding of the technology. The Fundamentals of Artificial Intelligence diploma course consists of an introduction that includes all the basic concepts in AI that will enable you to see what things are possible and what are not within the technology.

The Fundamentals of Artificial Intelligence diploma course will also discuss AI's concerns and issues like biases, ethics, and jobs. You will also get expert advice regarding learning about AI and beginning a profession in AI-related fields. The fundamentals of Artificial Intelligence diploma does not demand that you have any expertise in computer science or programming. It is simply meant to introduce to you the essentials and basics in the field, regardless of whether you possess a technical background. We aim to encourage as many people as possible from all backgrounds to learn about artificial intelligence, what it is, what it can or cannot do, and how one can start creating methods of AI. The course is flexible and can be studied and completed at whatever pace you are comfortable with. What you will learn   1: An introduction to AI and data  2: Algorithms and Hardware  3: Uses of AI in computer applications and common processes  4: Using AI for medical needs  5: AI helping improve human interactions  6: Data analysis for AI  7: Machine learning and deep learning in AI  8: AI in hardware applications  9: AI as a nonstarter  10: AI in outer space  Course Outcomes After completing the course, you will receive a diploma certificate and an academic transcript from Elearn college.
