Prof. Ryan Ahmed, PhD, MBA
I'm Dr. Ryan Ahmed, professor, engineer, and founder of Stemplicity, where we help people get past the hype and actually build things with AI, Agentic AI, Cloud, and Data Science.
Over the past 10 years, I've taught 1 million learners across 160 countries — 700,000+ enrolled in my Udemy courses, 260,000+ subscribers on the "Prof. Ryan Ahmed" YouTube channel, and 120,000+ on Coursera. I also run corporate AI training for teams at HSBC, RBC, Discover, and Barclays across the US, Canada, and the UK. I held leadership roles at GM, Samsung, and Stellantis in Canada and the U.S., working on electric and autonomous vehicle technologies.
I hold a MASc, PhD, and MBA from McMaster University. I’m also a licensed Professional Engineer and a Stanford-certified program manager with over 60+ published research papers in AI and battery systems.
But credentials are the least interesting part. Here's what I actually believe: "AI is the biggest opportunity of our lifetime", and most people are sitting it out because they think they need to code or have a PhD. You don't. If you're willing to show up and try, I'll help you get good at this.

This course is an excellent starting point for anyone wanting to understand Artificial Intelligence without getting lost in overly complex things
By Miguel Huerta on 8/16/2026
This course significantly changed my perspective on AI agents. While the content was introductory, the explanations were clear and practical, making complex concepts easier to understand. It strengthened my foundation in AI and gave me a better appreciation of how AI agents can be applied in real-world scenarios. I found it very useful and would recommend it to beginners.
By Majok Deng on 7/22/2026
In just a few hours, I went from knowing nothing to actually using ChatGPT 5, CoPilot, and AI agents in my daily workflow. The approach was fast (bite-sized lessons), simple (no jargon overload), and above all, practical every concept came with a real world use case I could apply immediately. I'm now saving hours each week, and I finally feel in control of AI instead of confused by it.
By Jeana Hall on 7/8/2026
I learned so much. Many of the things taught, I already do to create within the different AI models and now I can add to what I already know. I did learn somethings new and that was AI agents and custom gpts. The sky is the limit from here. Thanks!
By Rayna Reilly on 7/6/2026
Ryan has a way of drawing learners in and keeping them engaged. He spoke a little fast, but if you are paying attention you can understand him. Highly recommend this instructor.
By Ronald Emmanuel on 7/2/2026
The title is appealing and beginner-friendly. It clearly targets people who want a practical introduction to modern AI tools. However, it also packs together several broad topics, so I'd want to verify how deeply each is covered before enrolling.
By FIRE LION on 6/4/2026
This course is awesome, it provided me with general knowledge about prompt writing mechanics for various topics such as image generation, document analysis, AI agent usage and power, and so much more. Thank you, Mr. Ryan, for your free course.
By Akshay Kumar Jha on 5/25/2026
It was a good introductory course. It helps to learn new things that are quite familiar and will gain more knowledge in the future. Good insightful its just the basics but it gives me tools to work with and a place to start
By Jessica Mulhall on 5/5/2026
Good overview of the general applications to everyday business practicality. However, I have a question I've often wondered about AI? When users upload documents for scanning capabilities to reference in general, does the information have any confidentiality measures in place?
By Camila Londoño on 3/31/2026
I love this course! The instructor’s energy, the topics covered, and the clear, concise way of presenting everything are excellent. I highly recommend it and will definitely be checking out his other courses. I would love to see content on AI applied to health, wellness, and medicine. Thank you!
