MORE ABOUT ALEX:
We all have one shot at life and as such, I believe in living life to the fullest. This means constantly stepping out of my comfort zone by visiting new places and trying out new things. My relative success on Udemy has given me both financial freedom and the ability to be location independent. I am currently travelling around the world spending about a month in one city (current location is Chiang Mai, Thailand) before moving on to the next.

The course is very comprehensive and covers the main topics. It is a very good introduction to AI. I learnt a lot from doing it. The course tutor explains each topic clearly and in sufficient detail.
By Marci Ward on 12/28/2025
This is going to be a very informative journey through the worlds of AI, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Neural Networks, and NLP. Will be well worth the time.
By Steven Roberts on 11/7/2025
It is a great introduction to AI! Even though I have no computer background, I have become fascinated by chatbots, neural networks, and the future of robotics. I'd love to lear more about how neural networks work, how to build different types of chatbots, and the biggie of how all of this can create human cyborgs!
By Sharad Kumar on 9/14/2025
The course was presented in a manner which could be understood by someone not familiar with AI at all. The movie clips, examples and clarity in speech helped in understanding the various concepts effectively
By Dan Feldman on 7/1/2025
This course was incredibly informative and offers a clear picture of how AI is becoming embedded in our daily lives and transforming the future of the workforce. As someone who works in tech, I highly recommend it to anyone interested in learning more about AI and where we're headed!
By Guy Amos on 5/12/2025
The course got off to a slow start with the basics being front and centre, but it quickly jumped to very interesting and very digestible lectures on everything from LLM to Speech recognition, to Superintelligence.

~What is Artificial Intelligence: The "Simulation" of ____human intelligence_____ in *machines*. ~What is the primary goal of A.I.: To allow models to perform cognitive functions that are not dissimilar to humans. ~General A.I. is on-the-rise. ~Contrary to popular belief, we do not currently operate under "Super-Intelligence A.I."; however, the chances are on the rise. ~Common myths: A.I. has emotions, like humans (not true). ~A.I. will replace a lot of jobs in the future; however, it could not and would never TRY to replace all jobs. It can; however, perform error-less functions for the betterment of job effectiveness. ~A.I. thinking independently and becoming self-aware is not fully possible; it's all a ____myth_____. ~A.I. "taking over the world" is not without them first gaining self-awareness. !The point of A.I. is to gather knowledge for the betterment of human capabilities (not necessarily REPLACING them). Much needed note.^

This is a fantastic course. I highly recommend it. I learned a lot about AI, both about the present and future, and so will you.
By Yashwanth Eturi on 4/21/2025
For someone as new as I am to the field of AI, this is a fantastic course to begin with. I learnt all the terms I get to hear everyday and what they mean, what to expect and learn as I continue to deep dive in the field of AI. I have also taken the help of ChatGPT in the process to clarify some of my questions and to make notes and realised, a lot of what the author is teaching is being spit out by it. Nevertheless, it is good course for absolute beginners.
By Cosmas on 3/4/2025
From the course outlines and the contents, it's very palpable that this is a great course and will be very good for beginners. Great job, Alex.
