AI and Generative AI Explained

AI is reshaping every industry, but most people are still working from hype and headlines rather than real understanding. This course will teach you how AI and generative AI actually work – and how to use them confidently and responsibly.

What you’ll learn

AI is everywhere, but the gap between what people think it is and what it actually does has never been bigger. In this course, AI and Generative AI Explained, you’ll gain the ability to cut through the noise and make informed decisions about how you engage with AI.

First, you’ll explore what AI actually is – its history, why it’s so hard to define, and how we went from rule-based systems to the tools you’re using today. Next, you’ll discover how machine learning, deep learning, and large language models work – including what’s really happening when generative AI writes, creates, reasons, and acts. Finally, you’ll learn how to apply that understanding practically – recognizing AI’s real limitations, spotting hallucinations, and engaging with these tools thoughtfully and responsibly.

When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of AI and generative AI needed to move beyond the buzzwords and engage with these technologies with clarity and confidence.
