Excellent course for leaders looking at building AI teams within their organizational unit
Teams getting started with launching AI in their org often have this notion of ML being a magic wand and along with that comes unrealistic expectations. The course helps you choose an appropriate AI project, set realistic goals, workflow of a ML project and pitfalls to avoid which will enable a successful MVP.
The final week course cautions us on how our real-life biases of race and gender can spill into AI.An awareness of this is essential for ensuring that atleast the virtual world is free of bias.
Overall, a must-do course if you want to enable your org to embrace AI and your team to take their first steps in AI.

Great introductury course about AI. You will learn the basics and the most important knowledge about AI. Professor Andrew NG is a great teacher and explained concepts very well.
Important note: In general, starting to learn about new things can be hard, why? Because it is pattern in life when something has potential it gets alot of hype. The internet will be overloaded in info. What you want to do is navigate through the noise and focus on what is important. The best way to do this is to start in a beginner mind state, and the second best thing is to do ia to enroll in the best reviewed content about your new topic. This course satsified this criteria and it is excellent.

I just finished this course and I must say I loved the teaching style of Andrew Ng! He is enthusiastic, he cares about his audience and promotes an ethical use of AI while making complicated topics such as machine learning and deep learning accessible to the public. "AI for Everyone" is really an appropriate title for this course: you may be a complete beginner or a more advanced user, you will certainly find something interesting along the way. Even if you knew about all the topics being covered here, it would still be a great refresher as it's quick and well presented. Cheers to Andrew! I will for sure enroll in all other courses offered by this competent lecturer.

The course is well-prepared to give a brief theoretical overview of Artificial Intelligence, and also includes its various aspects starting from Artificial Narrow Intelligence (ANI) and Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) to revealing various types of AI, and even explains for a realistic view of AI. This course is a must to have a brief knowledge on AI, and getting a sound knowledge on talking AI. It does not involve any programming, but offers good amount of easy to cover and nicely explained theory.
I am glad to finish this course, and would recommend it to anyone willing to start with the concepts of AI, by the expert, Andrew NG sir (Co-Founder of Coursera).

Fantastic content presented at the perfect pace. Provided what I was looking for; context around AI and its use to accomplish business goals. Additionally, assisted me in considering how best to leverage AI in my organization while continually reviewing and considering the ethical implications when deploying it. A technology system that continually learns and is enhanced by its body of users has never existed at this level before and the responsibility we have to our coworkers and the world are well explained by Andrew in this course. Fantastic job! Highly recommend you take this course as a primer to set the proper foundation for AI in your world.

I had great learning through this course and can say that I am now more aware of what AI is and all the related concepts. This really is need of the hour to keep ourselves updated on the latest technology. By acquiring knowledge and better understanding one could make good use of the same by implementing in an appropriate manner mostly focusing on the positive side but also keeping in mind the negative side of over using the technology. To keep it simple, we should follow GOLDILOCKS rule which is neither "NOT TOO OPTIMISTIC" nor " TOO PESSIMISTIC" but "JUST BE RIGHT". I would like to thank Mr. Andrew for keeping the course simple yet convincing.

This is a basic introductory course about AI. With personal experiences and easy teaching style, Andrew Ng explained what exactly is AI, and what exactly are each trending terms, such as "Machine Learning", "Data Science", "Big Data", etc. Andrew is an inspring professor, teaching with clear and easy style. One of the best part of this course is the consideration of ethical issues. Andrew offers us his own "trained neural network" (not artificial), coming from his experience, providing exclusive and very valuable experiences and tips from his own role as AI developer in Google. Thank you very much, Andrew, for sharing your experience with us!.

To cover very quickly AI, as the latest "hot" area of knowledge and/or topic/field of business decisions, this is an excellent course for a non-technical person (and technical person too - business side of AI). The course is very well structured. The teacher is also excellent and very clear in its several explanations. I have the following suggestion that could improve the robustness of this course: in each block, add bibliography and/or materials if someone wants to dive deep in some special topic of the course (or specific block's course). Anyway, I strongly recommend other people (technical and non-technical) to take this course.

It was a great fun learning about the buzzy words AI, ML and many other things covered in this course. I would recommend people to join this course. Although the course was relatively short when compared to many other courses online, this course included a lot of information that would help any individual or a business or any other organization make a kick start in AI. I am really thankful to Mr. Andrew for keeping this course interesting and useful up till the end. I also thank Coursera for engaging in global education, which we are in desperate need of.
Now, I am confident that I can learn the technical part of AI efficiently.

When I started this course, I thought it would be a more technical one, as a I am a student of Computer Science. I felt more and more excluded in some of the videos which were explaining about the business aspects of AI. Then as I started the 4th week, I felt so happy about this course, because after all the 4 weeks, I gain so many different point-of-views about AI and realized all that in the 4th week while learning the AI's effect on society. Although I would have been a bit happier, if the technical part of this course is raised a little.
Thank you Professor Ng for teaching us wonderful things.

Before this course, I had completely reverse perspective about the capabilities of AI. Going through the course material, gradually, a certain different side of information about AI developed within me. I know, this perspective, which I obtained through the divine words of Andrew Ng will help me through out my life in pursuing my passion in the field of AI and Cyber Security. I love reading continuously about the things that I am passionate about; therefore, I am going enroll in your next course of Machine Learning.
I offer my sincere gratitude to Andrew Ng for his wonderful courses at Coursera.

The best takeaway from this course was right at the end. You don't need to quit your field and start learning AI from scratch just because AI seems to be the future. Instead, gain an understanding of AI and use that to complement what you currently do and the field you are in, as you already have experience and education in your field. This will open new opportunities and perhaps even brand new jobs for you where you integrate AI with your work. Ask Chat GPT how you can do this by telling it your field and it will suggest exciting new ways of working and jobs you may not even know existed.

It is a very good introduction to AI, but not in technical way. Very good if you are a CEO or someone who is in a management role and either you are considering or want to consider AI in your business. Or maybe someone who is new to technology or programming fields and want to know what is this all fuss about.
One disclaimer though, I finished this course for free. You will learn new things I assure you, however, I can not be so sure if its worth a lot of money. So, I encourage you to prioritize your budget, Specially if you are after technical Knowledge, there is basically none here.

I enjoyed the course, but I would recommend a few additional elements that would strengthen its impact:
1) add a few brief interviews with either pioneers in AI applications and/or business leaders who are using or considering adoption of AI.
2) A few short videos detailing robotics work (Boston Dynamics, Tesla, etc.), AI in prediction of stock markets data, and/or use in social engineering or non-profit undertakings.
3) Greater use of non-trivial business problems or examination of how AI or machine learning can help in elimination socially destructive industries (oil, coal, insurance).

A great course for those who have no exposure to AI or want to clear their doubts about AI.
This course gives an understanding of the different technical terms and aspects related to AI. Different terms such as deep learning, machine learning, neural networks etc. are very well explained in this course giving both its technical and non-technical meanings. It also covers topics such as how to make a company an AI-first company and different aspects related to the use of AI in companies. Lastly, Andrew talks about the disadvantages of AI could have on society and ways to overcome it.
