Course Overview
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has come a long way from the ‘expert systems’ of the 1980s. Forget about Skynet and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Today’s neural networks and machine learning algorithms are more likely to drive an autonomous car, analyse property markets, power a chatbot or help with clinical diagnoses and suggest treatments. In fact, the real challenge facing AI isn’t potential applications, it’s getting companies to recognise them. That’s why we created Developing AI Strategy.
With 31% of enterprises expected to add AI into their strategy over the next 12 months (Adobe), it’s never been more important to upskill. This is an industry-approved short course, powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS), that explores AI’s potential to disrupt your business. Master the AI basics, make agile decisions, and get ahead of the curve.
