Objectives

  • Distinguish between "Smart" and "Conscious": Critically analyse whether AI is truly intelligent or just an advanced simulation.
  • Debate the "Hard Problem" of AI: Can machines ever feel emotions or possess a subjective "inner life"?
  • Navigate the Ethical Landscape: Assess who is responsible when AI fails and explore the profound implications of machine autonomy and free will.
  • Understand the "Blueprint" of Thinking: Compare how the human mind works vs. how AI systems are built, exploring the architectures used to mimic the brain.
  • Deconstruct AI Perception: Learn how machines "see" the world compared to humans, and why simple visual tasks for us are massive challenges for computers.
  • Identify AI's Strengths & Blindspots: Use insights from cognitive science to see why AI models excel at patterns but struggle with common sense and meaning.


Pre Requisites

  1. No programming or technical experience required: You do not need to know how to code, and there is no advanced mathematics involved.
  2. No prior background in AI or Neuroscience needed: We will start from the very beginning, defining every concept clearly as we go.
  3. Just bring your curiosity: The only requirement is openness to abstract reasoning, conceptual discussions and a willingness to explore deep questions about the nature of intelligence, consciousness, and the future of humanity.


FAQ

  • Q. How long do I have access to the course materials?
    • A. You can view and review the lecture materials indefinitely, like an on-demand channel.
  • Q. Can I take my courses with me wherever I go?
    • A. Definitely! If you have an internet connection, courses on Udemy are available on any device at any time. If you don't have an internet connection, some instructors also let their students download course lectures. That's up to the instructor though, so make sure you get on their good side!
