Artificial Intelligence (AI) enables machines to perform tasks requiring human-like intelligence, such as decision-making and problem-solving. Its subsets include Machine Learning (ML), which uses data to improve systems without explicit programming, Deep Learning (DL), which employs neural networks for advanced pattern recognition, and Generative AI (Gen AI), which creates new content like text and images by analyzing data. Together, these technologies drive innovation, streamline processes, and deliver personalized experiences, making them essential in today’s digital world.

Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
